I bought it as a gift for my young nephew from New Mexico. In the summer, he visits in Northern Wisconsin and loves to fish for bass with his dad and his uncles. I thought it would be a great memory stimulator every time he plays with it, and I knew his family had the Wii system, so I bought the software. I read reviews that hated the pole and prefered the numchuck, so I did not buy the whole outfit. He was happy with the gift but has yet to get good at the game--he has only had it a few days. I am sure he will get very good at it, as he has for so many other Wii games. I am very satisfied with my purchase and would purchase it again if I needed another gift for someone.
Great game. Instructions could be a little more in depth and detailed (the reason for a "good" rating). The casting and bringing in a fish take a little practice. However, you can practice in the game and win credits to shop at the game's Bass Pro Shops store for more gear to use in the game. I have only used it with the included rod and all the controls are simple. A fun game to get a little fishing in while the snow is flying.
The game itself is fun. The fish are fun to catch and give a good fight when reeling in. I play with the wii remote and nunchuck so I don't know about the pole but I like having another game where I can use the nunchuck. The graphics are awful on this game and this is from someone who doesn't really pay that much attention to them but these are noticeably awful for the wii. Driving the boat i a lot of fun compared to other fishing games I have played (growing up that is). Casting is pretty easy once you get the hang of it. I am sure they will make a better fishing game in the future but for what this game it I truly enjoy playing it. I lucked out and got this for less than 12 bucks on ebay... I wouldn't pay the regular price for it. I don't think it is that good but I really wanted a fishing game myself so to each his own.Read full review

I bought this product for my son and boyfriend, because they like fishing games, since I have a WII system, and a fishing pole that my son bought, we had a fishing game, but the pole did not go with that one, he found this one that does go with it. There is no dislikes about the game, but the pole we bought does not seem to work, but we did not buy that here on ebay maybe we should of. It is just as good as any of the other products, good graphics and look all around.
I bought this because I was having cabin fever for going fishing and I thought that this would be a way to relieve the tension . It has done what i thought it would and I am very glad that I did buy it . The grathic's are great with the color vivid and vibrant. The action when you catch a fish is awesome . It really can't compare to the other game's that are the same out there . I play this game every day and I think that it is the best .
If you like fishing but it's hard to get out and go this game will help take the edge off.Graphics are pretty good and the control is good as well.Overall it gives you a pretty good sense of the real thing.
The games work well. Good graphics. Just as described.
