There are a lot of times when I just can’t make my way out onto the water, whether from life’s every day hassles getting in the way, or just having a really cold or windy day where it just wouldn’t be wise to get out on the water. Thankfully though, I have had fishing games to help pass the time when I actually had a chance to go fishing, and really just couldn’t get on the water. Luckily for me, there were a few decent ones that really stood out among the rest. If it hadn’t been for these few games that took up a lot of time once you got started, I may have been stuck just dreaming about going fishing.
When I said that I had gone through a mass of these video games, I really mean that I went through just about every title that you can find, for almost every gaming system known to man. Everything between the original fat Gameboy, to the new PS3 and Wii systems. The one thing that I quickly found out though was that free fishing games often were only good to kill a few minutes, and if you wound up playing any longer than that, the game either broker itself, or was incredibly unrealistic and forced you to quit playing. On the other end of the spectrum though, I did play quite a few nicer games.

When I got to the higher end systems, like the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii, I ended up finding fishing games online, where I could compete with other anglers and build points, sort of like tournament fishing. With the increase in graphics technology, along with the capability to play these games over the internet made it actually pretty fun. You have to be careful though, because some of the kids on these games have rather foul mouths and it often sounds like their parents are nowhere to be found. If you are one of these kids, shame on you.
Bass fishing games come in all varieties that I have seen, some ranging from incredibly realistic, to the other end of the spectrum providing absolutely no realism at all. The newer games that have been released over the last few years do provide more advanced features, and technology for graphics which makes them a bit nicer to play, but you can’t completely rule out the classic fishing video games that have been around for ages. During the period when these games were released, you had to have a solid foundation to make sales year after year, so it is often a safe bet finding a classic best seller fishing game.
