Judge Smails Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Just started playing it last week- pretty dang fun. It comes with its own motion sensoring reel that has the controls right on it. Its really not as much a bass fishing game as it is just a fishing game- there are tournaments for everything from crappies to northerns, muskies, and sturgeons. The only thing I didn't like is them claiming Lake Minnetonka has a sturgeon population. It would have been fun to have a real river fishery for the sturgeon and catfish...Haven't tried it yet, but I heard if you got the Move its even better because the motion sensing responds better allowing you to fight the fish better. Anyone else played it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pureinsanity Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Nope, but I saw it in stores. I not a fan of fishing games.Id be a fan if they were more realistic. Like you could travel larger areas of a lake, and you actually had to go find fish and know what you were doing. Most fishing games you can throw out a lure and boom there's the fish.

I bought this for my 6yo daughter for christmas in the Wii version...Better than the icarly [PoorWordUsage] she was asking for. I was impressed that it isn't just bass - as that was a major concern...But, good news folks - Minnetonka even has 18 lb largemouth bass lol, and you can keep any muskie you want I guess video games just aren't my thing anymore...But maybe she'll practice up for the next time she is visiting. I certainly couldn't/wouldn't play if for my entertainment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, they should make a game where your motor just stops working out on the water for no apparent reason. Or you have to fix a blown wheel bearing on the way to the lake. That would be realistic.
