    I liked this game enough. I have the fishing rod controller which surely makes a difference. I suppose if I were playing it with the joystick I wouldn't like it so much. It's just good to have a fishing game, and this ain't so bad. Admittedly the graphichs straight-up blow. So does the music, but just turn the stereo on. Get the fishing rod controller and you can look past I liked this game enough. I have the fishing rod controller which surely makes a difference.

    If you've been waiting for a fishing game for xbox like I have do yourself a favor and keep waiting. Boring, frustrating, and annoying. The worst fishing game yet regardless of the platform. Mine is being returned to the store monday.

    It may be realistic to have a fishing game where the fish are all in hiding or killed off by man-made pollutants, but it's certainly not much fun. [Oct/Nov 2003, p.91]
  2. As boring as it can be, it can make you feel thrilled and invigorated at the same time. Thus is the beauty-- and bad-- of fishing. This game offers a lot of that realistic thrill.
  3. Excellent first entry Capcom! I think a lot of fishing fans will be wishing for a little more customization, but this is a solid title for the price it is being sold at.
