Gamers hoping to find an exciting and unique fishing experience in virtual form aren't happy; hardcore fishing fans hoping to see one of their favorite brands celebrated will be disappointed as well.

For all its simminess, hooking one of the 20 varieties of fish is a largely random affair. [June 2007, p.71]

Seriously though some multiplayer should of been added. I would of liked to see some more lures as well since the selection was kinda on the light end.

Gameplay and control, unfortunately, are the worst aspects of the title. I can usually live with poor graphics if gameplay is good and the controls are solid. Alas, you will become bored very quickly. This game is a real snoozer.

Not bad, I do not understand that people cannot catch fish as I am almost finished the game within 2 weeks, the 3 day tournaments are a bit boring as catching the same fish for 3 days is not a thrill when u know what lure to use. Not a bad game to sit back and just chill. Easy achievements if you know what you are doing!!!
