…And you’re just going to eat it afterwards, right?
The Bug Off is similar to the Fishing Tourney except the aim is to catch any type of bug, regardless of the time of the year. Bugs are ranked according to the rarity of the bug, its size and colour.
Once again you get a prize for beating the current record so be sure to start off with your smaller, most common bugs and hand over the rarer and larger ones afterwards.
The Bug-Off takes place at the following times of the year:
- Third Saturday in June
- Third Saturday in July
- Third Saturday in August
- Third Saturday in September
This page will outline the rarity of different types of insect so you know what to hunt for. Remember that the number of points will be affected by the size and colour of the bug.
You can tell the size when you first catch the bug; the colour is randomly determined by Nat.
