How To Get Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

These merchants will only appear after you've explored the surrounding ocean sections, so they might be new to you if you've only walked on the beach before.
You only need one unit of Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp to satisfy Kennosuke, and at just $1.60 per unit, it's an affordable purchase. Feel free to stock up without breaking the bank.
Catching Shrimp While Swimming
Catching fish, including Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp, while swimming near Alola Beach is a cost-free alternative. Simply swim towards any fish silhouettes you see and press the "Catch" prompt when it appears. Keep in mind, though, that Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp are relatively rare; we only caught four after about 50 attempts. If you're short on luck, buying from a merchant is the more reliable option.
If you're low on cash, you can earn some by engaging with gangsters or thugs on the beach. A single encounter should net you enough to cover the $1.60 cost of the shrimp.
