Musical Crab guide

Musical Crab is a Mythical catch from Crystal Cove with an unusually specific recipe: it appears at Night, in Rain, and only in Summer. No bait is listed, so the conditions do the gatekeeping. The wiki describes it as only reachable with traps rather than a rod, which is worth keeping in mind before you waste a rainy night casting.

Physically it is tiny. It averages 3.7 kg and tops out at 12.6 kg, placing its maximum weight 436th among the 663 fish with recorded weight. The value comes from price per kg instead: C$2,500 per kg turns an average catch into roughly C$9,250, 131st of the 742 documented fish.

That makes it a case where weight tells you nothing and price per kg tells you everything. A fish this light that still lands in the top fifth for value is a good illustration of why Mythical entries should be compared on worth, not size.

Verdict: it suits players already working Crystal Cove who can line up a summer rainy night. It will not make you rich in one catch, but C$9,250 for a 3.7 kg animal is solid. Keep your trap setup ready and avoid spending time on it outside those three conditions.
