What it's for

They may look more aggressive than they actually are, but lobsters can certainly stand up for themselves when in a pinch. Every lobster has a crusher claw and a pincer claw and they are not afraid to use them should the time arise!

Lobster is one of the more expensive basic fish from the Fishing area with a base price of 25 000 dollars, and in the game it is described as a combative crustacean with two different claws. On the farm it serves as an input resource for just one recipe in The Mermaid Bay, so it has a narrower use than herring or tuna. On top of that it takes a bit longer to produce than herring or tuna. It is caught exclusively in boats, you cannot buy it in the shop.

How to get it

Lobster takes a bit longer to produce than herring or tuna, the Motorboat needs 7 h 54 min to 8 h 54 min depending on level and the Norfolk punt 11 h 12 min to 16 h 42 min. At the highest level the punt gives 161 units, but because of the longer cycle it no longer pulls that far ahead of the Motor barge, which has a universal time of 8 h 59 min and gives 75 units, so the difference in units per hour is not as big as with the faster fish.

What to do with it

Lobster is used only for Seafood mix in The Mermaid Bay. You can send it to the Dockyard as well, but no recipe is specified there.

Tip from a veteran player Do not catch lobster into stock far ahead of time for no reason, it is enough to top it up according to how much Seafood mix you are preparing at the moment.
Most common mistake It is a waste to build the highest level of the Norfolk punt for lobster, if one recipe is all you need, a well used Motor barge gives almost the same output for a fraction of the investment.
