I have two and really want a third for a model but am having no luck. Does anyone have any tips for catching these? I got the first two on a Kapp'n island but my last couple trips with him yielded no rare fish.

TIA.
 
Honestly I caught most of if not all of my fish while landscaping/beach-combing for manila clams.

If you walk one time all the way around your beach, then go into a building and come out and then comb all the way around again, I feel like it helps spawns. I also scare away any wrong-sized shadows.

No clue if scaring wrong-sized fish and building-entering help with the spawns but that's what I did.
