− | '''River Jelly''' is an item that can be caught using a [[Tools#Fishing Poles|Fishing Pole]] during all seasons in rivers.<!--Note: Testing needs to be done to determine what rivers this can be caught in.--> It can also be acquired from a [[Midnight Carp]] [[Fish Pond]] with a population of at least 7. | + | '''River Jelly''' is an item that can be caught using a [[Tools#Fishing Poles|Fishing Pole]] during all seasons in the river in [[Pelican Town]] and [[Cindersap Forest]], the [[The Mountain|mountain lake]], the Cindersap Forest pond, the pond at [[the Desert]], the pond in the [[Secret Woods]], at [[Ginger Island]] West (freshwater) and North, and on all [[Farm Maps]] except for the Standard and Beach Farm Maps. Each level of [[Luck#Luck Buffs|Luck Buff]] applied significantly increases the chance of catching it. [[Luck#Daily Luck|Daily Luck]] has no effect. |
| River Jelly is displayed in the [[Collections#Fish|Fish section]] of the [[Collections|collection]] tab, and counts towards the four fishing [[Fishing#Achievements|Achievements]]. However, it is otherwise not considered to be a fish, and therefore cannot be sold to [[Willy]] at the [[Fish Shop]]. | | River Jelly is displayed in the [[Collections#Fish|Fish section]] of the [[Collections|collection]] tab, and counts towards the four fishing [[Fishing#Achievements|Achievements]].

| + | However, unlike when catching regular fish or other items, the random value used to determine whether a River Jelly is successfully caught is predetermined. This value only changes when catching a [[Cave Jelly|Cave]], River, or [[Sea Jelly]], or any [[Fish]]. It is not changed by catching Algae, Trash, or any other catchable items.<ref name="jelly_RNG"/> Because of this, after catching Trash using the Training Rod, it is necessary to catch a regular fish before another River Jelly. This can easily be done by switching to any [[Fishing Pole]] other than the Training Rod, continuing to fish until an actual fish is caught, and switching back to the Training Rod. |
