Shrimp
A regular How to Fish catch landed with Ham. The lighthouse island is the recommended or lure-unlock stop, not a universal location lock. Like every regular creature, it has a rare drip variant that counts toward Fishipedia.

How to find
Shrimp: Use Ham; the lighthouse island is the recommended or lure-unlock stop recorded by current guides. Ordinary fish are lure-driven and may be catchable elsewhere with the correct lure and rod. Watch for the rainbow-named drip variant and press Tab to check the encyclopedia entry.
Evidence boundary for Shrimp
The supported record identifies Shrimp as a common fish associated with Lighthouse (Island 1). KeenGamer complete walkthrough & all fish locations (per-island bait tables), checked 2026-08-26.
Exact spawn odds, health, damage, sale value and map coordinates are deliberately omitted unless a stable source verifies them. A missed encounter is not proof of a hidden timer or a bug; confirm the listed lure and story access before changing anything risky.
