Sorry but i couldn't imagine playing a fishing game with the regular controler, especially when their is a fishing controller, it adds to the fun of the game. The realistic of the controller is unbelievable! It doesn't detect the movement left or right but then you use your thumb on the top d-stick. For those of you on a tight budget it might be best to wait and see if another game comes out before you get it.

Sega Bass Fishing is a great game. Adding the fishing controller brings a new dimension. Feels a bit more like fishing this way. Yeah, it's nothing compared to the full arcade version where you have to fight the "fish" tugging on your line. But this home controller comes in a close second for the fun rating. Vibrates when you have a fish on the line, but strength of vibration doesn't change based on the size of the catch (too bad! , but still fun anyway). If you enjoy the fishing game then I highly recommend getting the Fishing Controller.

Well, where did Sega come up with this? The rod is uncomfortable and has a very unreal feel when bass fishing. Most of your movements arent even sent to the game, giving the user not much to work with. You would think that if there was a fish on your line the reeling would get stonger, but it doesn't, the only thing this controller does is vibrate. I prefer the regular controller over this worthless piece of plastic. DO NOT SPEND THE MONEY ON THIS!

I am yet to try the rod made by InterAct (I believe that's the other manufacture) So I am not going to comment on that one.

The dream cast equipment was much better than the knockoff's. There are fewer problems and it lasts foever. I purchased a madcats version in 1996 and it died after only about a year; The Dreamcast F.Controler I purchased new in 1998 is still going strong today(2008)

With this amazing controller my well- Dreamcast has reborn from ashes. Now playing Sega Bass Fishing is just a new experience, far away from playing with the regular controller. SEGA just do it... seven years before Nintendo's Wii!

I was a little apprehensive about buying this controller, but it has proved to be a welcome addition to my gaming gear. The feel and play of it are so realistic. Now all i need is a dock to sit on and some bait to complete the wonderful experience.

this rod makes the bass feel real! It vibrates and you can reel fish in. A must have for a fisherman.

wow, the word just utters out of my mouth..
it's so fun playing sega marine fishing with this controller that i just got!! the action of hooking and reeling and jerking really works!! man, i am totally ignoring PS2('cause how boring it is!!) and i am not even thinking of buying PS2 now 'cause i am having so so so much fun with dreamcast than my friends with PS2.
once again, hail to SEGA for bringing such wonderful gaming experience!!

This is a great controller but its a piece of crap. I bought one and after using it for like 3 hrs. it began to became hard to reel and squeked all the time. Hopefully I'll be able to return it. Maybe you'll have better luck than me.
