Crab pots are floated on the shores of bodies of water (lakes, ponds, rivers, or the ocean) and primed with [[Bait (item)|Bait]] in order to catch fish. Players with the [[Skills#Fishing|Luremaster profession]] don't need to refill the pots with bait.
'''Crab Pots''' are floated on the shores of bodies of water (lakes, ponds, rivers, or oceans) and primed with [[bait]] to catch [[Fish#Crab Pot Fish|fish]]. Bait must be inserted every day. Players with the [[Skills#Fishing|Luremaster profession]] don't need to add bait.
Harvesting a crab pot gives 5 [[Fishing]] experience points, even if [[trash]] is caught, the item is normally a [[The Beach|Beach]] [[Foraging|forage]] item, or multiple items were caught in the Crab Pot. [[Fish]] caught with crab pots also count towards the four fishing [[achievements]] (Fisherman, Ol' Mariner, Master Angler, and Mother Catch).
Crab pots can be [[Crafting|crafted]] or purchased from [[Fish Shop|Willy's Fish Shop]] for {{Price|1500}} after reaching [[Skills#Fishing|Fishing level 3]]. Three crab pots are rewarded for completing the {{Bundle|Crab||y}}. 1 Crab Pot is also one of the prizes from the [[Trout Derby]] festival.
If the player has the power from [[The Art O' Crabbing]] book, it gives Crab pots a 25% chance to yield double the amount of items.
==Stages==
Crab pots have three stages, which can be distinguished visually:

|-

| The crab pot caught something and can be harvested. An icon of what it contains will appear above the crab pot.
|}
==Specialized Bait==
Any type of bait can be used in a crab pot. Using certain types of specialized types of bait will provide additional benefits, assuming the player does not have the Mariner profession:<ref name="specialized_bait" />
*[[Deluxe Bait]] decreases the chance of junk (from 38% to 30% in most areas) and increases the quality of Crab Pot fish to silver.
*[[Wild Bait]] decreases the chance of junk by the same amount (from 38% to 30% in most areas).
*Using any type of [[Targeted Bait]] also decreases the chance of junk by the same amount (from 38% to 30% in most areas). Crab Pot Fish Targeted Bait uses the same decrease for the chance of junk, and also increases the chance to catch that specific Crab Pot fish, decreasing the chance of getting other items which includes decreasing the chance of trash further, down to between 10% to 27% in most areas depending on the Targeted Bait used.
*[[Magnet]], [[Magic Bait]], and [[Challenge Bait]] do not provide additional benefits compared to [[Bait (item)|standard bait]].
If the player has the Mariner profession, only Deluxe Bait provides an additional benefit, namely still increasing the quality of Crab Pot fish to silver.
==Catch==
The day after placing a crab pot, the following items can be found in it:
The day after placing a crab pot, the following items can be found in it:
==Anywhere==
===Anywhere===
Unless the player has the [[Skills#Fishing|Mariner]] profession, the following [[trash]] items can be obtained by putting a crab pot in any type of water. The chance of trash is constant at 38% (30% if the player is using [[Deluxe Bait]], [[Wild Bait]], or [[Targeted Bait]]) regardless of luck or fishing skill (57% in the [[Farm Maps#Beach|Beach Farm]] pond). All trash items are equally likely to appear.<ref name="crabpot_chance" /> Trash can be [[Recycling Machine|recycled]] into useful items.

The following creatures can be caught by putting a crab pot into any freshwater location.<ref name="crabpot_chance" />
[[Farm Pond]]s will yield Crab Pot Fish, even ponds where a Fishing Rod can only catch trash. Crab Pots also work in all underground locations (''e.g.,'' [[The Sewers]]). The pools found in [[the Mines]] are the only exceptions. While Crab Pots can be placed in the mine’s pools, they will vanish and be permanently lost after leaving the level. Crab Pots cannot be placed into fountains (''e.g.,'' in [[Pelican Town]] or outside the [[Spa]]).

==Dyeing==
Crab Pot can be used in [[dyeing]], serving as an orange dye at the dye pots, located in [[Emily]]'s and [[Haley]]'s house, [[2 Willow Lane]].
==Gold per Day==
Crab pots make on average {{Price|47}}/day in freshwater and {{Price|50.5}}/day in the ocean, assuming all [[trash]] is [[Recycling Machine|recycled]] and sold. This number can be increased to about {{Price|75}}/day for freshwater or {{Price|81.4}}/day for the ocean if all [[fish]] that are worth less than {{Price|75}} are converted into [[Sashimi]] and the [[Skills#Fishing|Mariner]] profession is chosen. <ref name="goldperday" />
==Tips==
* Because the [[#Freshwater|freshwater catches]] sell for a low value and can be easily caught in large quantities, they're ideal choices for turning into [[Quality Fertilizer]] or [[Sashimi]]. It might be helpful to put a handful of crab pots in the farm's ponds (where they're easily accessible to harvest daily) to make fertilizer/sashimi out of their catches and gain some Fishing experience.
* When the [[Skills#Fishing|Luremaster Profession]] is taken, it becomes easier to accidentally pick up the crab pots. Since 1.5, this has become easier to avoid; simply target a crab pot that still contains its daily catch, and hold the collection button. As long as the button is held, the player can collect as many as they like without fear of accidentally picking up the crab pot. Since 1.6.4 this is even easier to avoid, as there is now a short delay after collecting when the crab pot cannot be picked up.
** Without the profession, the easiest way is to have the bait selected as the crab pots are emptied, easily baiting the pot right away. Baited Crab Pots cannot be picked up.
* Without the Trapper profession, the total cost of buying materials to build a crab pot is {{Price|3100}}. With the profession, the total cost of materials is {{Price|1300}}. However, these prices more than double starting in Year 2 due to the rise in the cost of raw materials, while the purchase price from [[Fish Shop|Willy's Fish Shop]] remains fixed at {{Price|1500}}. This makes it much more cost-effective to buy crab pots from Willy's starting in Year 2 instead of buying the ingredients, even with the Trapper profession.
==Notes==
*Since the game uses a unique beach map during festival days, items a player has placed on [[the Beach]] (Crab Pots, [[Chest]]s, etc.) may disappear during the [[Night Market]]. These items should return on Winter 18.

<ref name="specialized_bait">See <samp>CrabPot::DayUpdate</samp> in the game code. The initial chance of junk for Deluxe Bait, Wild Bait, and Targeted Bait is 10% and if this chance does not occur, the code falls back to trash, adding 20.2% more chance of trash. This chance is lower if Crab Pot Fish Targeted Bait is used.</ref>
<ref name="crabpot_chance">Crab pot contents are determined by <samp>CrabPot::DayUpdate</samp>. For mariners, there is no chance of junk, and all creatures are equally likely. For non-mariners, there is a 20% chance of junk, then each creature is checked sequentially using the chances specified in <samp>Fish.xnb</samp>. One result of this algorithm is that the actual chance of finding a given creature is smaller than the value in the input file, because it can only be found if junk items and all previous creatures failed their tests. If no creature is found, the code falls back to trash; this adds 18% more chance of trash (for both ocean and freshwater crab pots). Note that the order in which catches are checked is not the same as the order in the <samp>Data\Fish</samp> table (see [[Talk:Crab Pot|Discussion]] for more details).</ref>
<ref name="beach_farm_pond">See <samp>Data\Locations.xnb</samp> in the game files. The value of <samp>CrabPotJunkChance</samp> is 0.45 for the Beach Farm pond while it is 0.2 everywhere else.</ref>
<ref name="targeted_bait">See <samp>CrabPot::DayUpdate</samp> in the game code. Each creature is checked in the same way as normal, but the chance specified in <samp>Fish.xnb</samp> is increased for the targeted fish.
