The '''Octopus''' is a [[fish]] that can be caught in the ocean at [[The Beach]] or on the [[Farm Maps#Beach|Beach Farm]] during [[Summer]] or in the ocean on [[Ginger Island]] West during any season. It can also randomly be found in [[Garbage Can]]s during Summer, or at the [[Traveling Cart]] for {{tprice|150}}. There is a 2.2% chance to hook an Octopus during the deep-sea submarine ride at the [[Night Market]] during [[Winter]] 15-17 (1.6% if using a [[Curiosity Lure]]).
The '''Octopus''' is a [[fish]] that can be found in the [[The Beach|ocean]] during the [[Summer]]. The Octopus can also be found randomly in [[Garbage Can]]s in [[Summer]].  It can also randomly rotate into daily stock at the [[Traveling Cart]] for {{tprice|150}}.

Octopus can be caught regardless of time of day or season using [[Magic Bait]].
This is one of the most difficult fish to catch in the game, even compared to Legendary Fish. To make it even more demanding, the odds of an octopus biting is very rare, and the window of time available to catch it is comparatively small.  The most sure-fire tactic is maxing out your [[fishing]] skill, equip the [[Iridium Rod]], use a [[Dish o' The Sea]], and attaching a [[Trap Bobber]] to your fishing pole.  Using a combination of a maxed out fishing skill and the Iridium Rod is often insufficient.
