Red Crabsquid guide

Red Crabsquid lives in Crimson Cavern and appears on Clear days in Summer, during the day. It is a Rare catch, and the in-game text calls it a hybrid creature with squid-like tentacles, dwelling in crimson crab cages. No bait is listed for it, so the conditions matter more than the setup.

It weighs 3 to 21 kg, averaging 6.5 kg, and sells at C$40 per kg, for about C$260 per average catch. It gives 120 base XP. Among the 742 documented fish its average value ranks 462nd, and its maximum weight is 390th of 663, which makes it an ordinary Rare, not a standout.

Viperfish is the other Rare fish listed in the cavern, so those two will make up most of your Rare catches there. For gear, Crimson Cavern sells Evil Pitchfork, Scarlet Spincaster Rod, Ruinous Oath and Wicked Fang Rod, which means you can pick up a rod on the spot.

My read: it is a perfectly fine catch to sell when it shows up, but the daytime Summer window is narrow, and the money is modest. Fish the cavern for the Rares as a group rather than planning around this one.
