The Squid is a fish that can be caught in the ocean at The Beach or on the Beach Farm in the evening during Winter. It can also randomly be found in Garbage Cans during Winter, or at the Traveling Cart for data-sort-value="80"Gold.png240–1,000g. Squid can be caught during the entire day on Winter 12th and 13th during the SquidFest festival. Pierre sells 5 Squid for data-sort-value="10">Calico Egg.png 10 each during the Desert Festival.

When placed in a Fish Pond this fish will produce Squid Ink instead of Roe.

Squid can be caught regardless of time of day or season using Magic Bait.

Tailoring

Squid can be used in the spool of the Sewing Machine to create the dyeable Sailor Shirt.  

Fish Pond

Squid can be placed in a Fish Pond, where they will reproduce every 3 days. The initial pond capacity is 3 fish, but the capacity can be increased to 10 by completing two quests. Instead of producing Roe, squid ponds produce Squid Ink.
