The Oyster is a fish that can be caught using a Crab Pot in any saltwater body of water. It can also be foraged from the Beach or randomly found at the Traveling Cart for 
120–1,000g. Like all fish caught from the crab pot, it cannot be eaten unless it is used in a Cooking recipe or smoked.

Fish Pond
Oysters can be placed in a Fish Pond, where they will reproduce every 2 days. The initial pond capacity is 3 fish, but the capacity can be increased to 10 by completing three quests. Typical output includes dark gray Oyster Roe, Seaweed, and various Trash items, but more valuable items are possible starting at population 5.
