The Shad is a fish that can be caught in the river (in Pelican Town or Cindersap Forest) and the Riverlands Farm, Forest Farm, or Hill-Top Farm during Spring, Summer, and Fall while raining. It may also randomly appear in Krobus' shop on Wednesdays for 200g, or at the Traveling Cart for 180–1,000g.
Shad can be caught regardless of weather, time, or season using Magic Bait.
