Fishing is an easy and fun activity in Disney Dreamlight Valley that fits right in with the game’s cozy vibe. Players can start fishing as soon as they get the fishing rod in The Royal Tools quest. You will be doing a lot of fishing along the way; sometimes to cook a meal, other times to help out friends with their quests.

With the release of the Storybook Vale DLC, players can unlock a new world filled with all sorts of fish and seafood. One of the new fish is the Sorcerer Hat Hermit Crab. You can use it in your recipes, craft with it, or even eat it as is. But where do you find it, and how do you catch it? So where is it found and how to catch it? All the info you need can be found below.

How to Catch Sorcerer Hat Hermit Crab in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Every fish and seafood ingredient in the game is found in a specific biome, and their rarity is shown by ripple colors. White ripples mean common fish, while orange ripples mean rare ones. Sorcerer Hat Hermit Crab is a rare catch, so you’ll need to fish in orange ripples to find it.

DDV fans can find Sorcerer Hat Hermit Crab in The Bind region. This is the first biome you’ll unlock after starting your journey in The Library of Lore. Once you have access to the area, go to any water source and look for orange ripples. If you don’t see any right away, try to fish in other ripples to refresh the spawns, or you can check back later. It’s a rare fish, so it won’t appear as often as other fish in Storybook Vale.

Once players see orange ripples, they will need to grab the fishing pole from the Royal Tools menu. Aim for the center of the ripples when you cast your line. If you miss, don’t worry because you can always try again.
