It can also be caught on many of the non-standard Farm Maps: Forest, Riverland, Wilderness, and the large pond on the Four Corners Map. It can also be caught during any season in Ginger Island North and West (freshwater). It can also randomly be found at the Traveling Cart for 450–1,000g.
Midnight Carp can be caught regardless of time of day or season using Magic Bait.
