If my 65 year-old Dad who never plays Playstation can catch lunker sized bass, you can too. I LOVE this game. The underwater view allows you to really learn how to make lures look real, and use rod action to attract and catch bass (small and largemouth), bluegill, and catfish. You can set out on 4 different lakes (3 + one hidden) in career, tournament, and fishing trip modes, or see just how good you are in any of the 13+ challenge levels. If you've NEVER tried a fishing game before, this is a great title to get you started.

This game was great for it's time. I still enjoy it even though I have other fishing titles now on current gen systems. I gave it a 5 for fun b/c when I played this game it was a blast. I gave it a 3 overall due to the fact that it is now outdated due to grainy graphics. I had this game at one time and ended up giving it to my nephew as a present b/c he loved it so much. So later on when I wanted to play it again I was left with the "buy myself another copy" option. =) I bought it on here and received it within a few days. Great service. But anyhow, if you want to play a great old gen system fishing game and you don't mind the very grainy graphics, then by all means pick this one up. You get to drive your boat all around the lakes which is a major plus in my book. But if you want a current gen fishing title with awesome graphics then get Pro Fishing Challenge on the XBOX. Rapala Pro Fishing on the PS2 is another fun title but the levels are very small and the graphics are not as good as in Pro Fishing Challenge.

If you love Bass fishing then this is the perfect game for you. I would highly recomend buying this game. It is a kick but fishing game that will entertain you for hours.

This game is actually the most realistic I've played for the ps1 you can controll high low and spool free drag, you have to follow the fish while reeling in instead of just reeling in, the fish fights are intense and the fishes AI is incredible even enticing the fish to bite is hard,you have to learn lure tecniques for each lure, theres even an unsuspected fish type! challange mode fishing trip Tournament need I go on? you can controll the level of fish AI. its EA fishing is a sport need I make it clearer!? SO in overall totals for pros and cons

Pros
1 Tournament mode, Fishing Trip mode, Challange mode, and Career
2 Advanced bass AI and challanging fights fish even behave differently during different months temps and wheather its cloudy clear or the water is clear or muddy!!
3 all your record bass are recorded!
4 fishing trip is like a free mode to do all the free fishing you want where you controll the lake the time of year, weather choose between sunny cloudy and rain in some months you may even choose Snow!!, tempratures from 41' to 84' depending on month, the quality of water stain clear and muddy, and start times!!!
5 different line strength for different lures! and advanced tackle setup
6 Dive the boat anywhere! no more trolling!!!!
7 outstanding graphics the water looks great and the fish look real!
8 several different lures!!!
9 you can even catch catfish I've never seen that in any other fishing game so in total 4 different species of fish largmouth and smallmouth bass, bluegill, and Catfish!!!!!!
10 You can choose a male or female angler
Realistic fights while reeling in.
11 Huge lakes and pleanty of nice hidden spots to catch fish and amazing sceanery especially the eye popping waterfalls.
12 many huge lunkerfish if you know where to look

Cons

1 the only thing I may think of is that it only has 5 lakes to choose from :(

So what are you waiting for go out and buy a copy!! its worth way more then 5x every penny especially at the price!Championship Bass

This game is a blast although I do not own I have rented it but am looking to buy very very soon the graphics are to cool not to easy yet not to hard chalenging always trying to beat your biggest catch . The tournements are very all in all it is one of the better games I have played and you would like it to

(This text refers to the PC version of this game)
Okay... you got me.... I exagerated about being a world class bass fisherman, but isn't that what it's all about anyway? Great pc game. Fun, challenging, addictive, and strangly educational for the bass ignorant (like me). The bigger they are the harder they are to land. Good graphics too. Better than the playstation version for a couple of reasons: 1) There are many more lakes to choose from and they are modeled after actual lakes in the U.S. 2) The behavior of the fish seems to be more realistic (possibly due to more memory?).
You'll enjoy it.

The game was extremly fun, but I found it to take time to get used to. All in all I give it three stars, as the graphics could use some upgrading.

This game is only one word.SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.S-U-P-E-R. Super
