Field guide / 01
Read. Cast.
Fight.
1. Read the water
Move the targeting ring over the lake. Fish shadows cruise at different depths and speeds. Golden Bass are rare, quick, and worth the biggest score.
2. Place the cast
Click or tap when your ring overlaps a fish. Rookie mode has a larger hook radius; Legend mode demands precision. Empty casts reset your streak.
3. Work the reel
When a fish bites, hold the mouse, touchscreen button, or Space key to increase line tension. Release to lower it. Keep the white needle inside the moving green zone to fill the catch bar. Too much tension snaps the line; too little lets the fish escape.
4. Build Bass Rush
Three landed fish charge Bass Rush. For ten seconds, fish slow down, the cast radius grows, Golden Bass appear more often, and every catch scores double.
Scoring
Species, weight, streak and active Bass Rush all multiply your result. Complete changing missions for large bonuses and chase an S rank above 10,000 points.
