In the submarine ride at the Night Market, there is a 21% chance to hook a Midnight Squid (17% if using a Curiosity Lure). If using Magic Bait in the southwest corner of the beach, there is a 3.3% chance to hook a Midnight Squid (10.2% if using a Curiosity Lure).[1]

When placed in a Fish Pond, Midnight Squid will produce Squid Ink instead of Roe. However, Midnight Squid Roe can be found in Fishing Treasure Chests after obtaining the power from the Jewels Of The Sea book.

Midnight Squid can also be caught regardless of time of day or season using Magic Bait — cast west from the left-most pier in the southwest corner of the beach.
