 Not enough attention to detailJan 04, 2005
By Randy
The game is fun when you first play, but there are too many flaws for long term enjoyment. My list of the bad:
- NO multiplayer
- can only select from Rapala lures, not soft baits, no spinners, etc.
- deep diving baits go directly to the bottom regardless of water depth, and are unuseable
- lures do not react realistically to rod movement, move the rod tip up and your lure may move 4-5 feet, there is also a terrible delay to rod movements, retrieves, and stops - stop-and-go retrieves do not work, and twitching jerk baits does not work - this is the most annoying part of the game
- consistent casting distance is difficult to achieve
- line tension meter is not consistent with fish movements
- setting the hook seems to be a random event, not dependent on how you perform the actions
- holding the right trigger (retrieve) continuously with a fish on makes no difference in the fight or the tension meter
- you only get a small portion of a lake to fish - maybe 200 acres of a 20,000 acre lake
- tournament mode places you directly in the lake, there is no pre-launch strategy such as reviewing topo maps
- fishing partner sounds like Jerry McGinnis and talks more than Fish Fishburn - annoying - his only useful tip is "this looks like a good spot"
- horrible boat driving simulation - you won't be driving the boat around for fun

Pro Fishing?Jan 18, 2005
By tomuchtime
"tmt"
First I understand that the title is Rapala but please. For choices of rod/reel selection there are no baitcasters... what's up with that. Secondly the weight of the fish versus the drag setting is a joke, I fish numerous tournaments and have never had a 5 to 6 lb Largemouth bass break my line with my drag set as tight as it can go, yet it happens in this game. The actuall setting of the hook well as the other reviews point out it is pretty much random as there is no skill here, there always seems to be way to much slack in the line. There is no changing the speed of which you reel-in just start or stop. Lastly the amount of lake available to fish is really pathetic. At least for the price, you only out 20 dollars.

Totaly awsome game! It rocks so hard. You just gotta buy this game. Activision really nailed the details and graphics. The best fishing game ever, if any game ever beats this, it gonna be the sequel! If you hav been wanting 2 buy a fishing game, then this is the game 2 buy. #1 game, i would play this game ALL night. I dont know about the other reviewers, saying this game is a drag, it ROCKS. Buy this game, u wont regret it!

This game is so much fun.
Choose the region,weather,time of day.
I can catch some fish but it's not too easy where there's no challenge.
It's fun and I can play for hours.
Great fun!Nov 07, 2008
By D. Bennett
Great selection of rods/reels and fish to go after. Graphics are good. We play in a big group and its always fun. Drag is fine .. we never have problems. There's lots of fishing games we've tried but always come back to this one.
