Switch Crab pots giving 999 of items

[MuddyMudkip980]

I was just picking up my crab pots on the pier when I noticed it said I picked up 999 newspaper and mussel. I immediately tried recreating it and was able to successfully do it once. I clipped my first encounter with it and my recreation I was able to do. I added screenshots of my characters stats. It won’t let me post the clips here but if needed I can post them somewhere else, just say.

Game version is 1.6.9.37
My switch isn’t modded in anyway.

I had the same thing happen on PS4 and found that the changelog for 1.6.12 states: "fixed bug where you could harvest unusual quantities of items from crab pots". My PS4 is offline by default and I hadn't gone online to update to the latest. @MuddyMudkip980 Switch should also be on 1.6.14 now; has yours been updated?

Switch is on 1.6.9.37. I think wiki says wrong. I don't know about ps.

The wiki is definitely out of date. But it's mainly kept up by PC players so it tracks that they wouldn't care what version the console ports are currently on. We just have to sit and wait for fixes, I suppose
