OBJECT
_
This unit
can be
played
in two
different game modes:
"Recreational"
or
"Tournament".
In
Recreational Mode,
you'll want
to try to
catch
a
Lunker,
a
fish which weighs over
20 pounds
(the
largest fish weighs
25
pounds!).
In
Tournament
Mode,
try to
catch
the
three largest fish
you
can within
a
20-minute time period.
Catching smaller fish
is
fairly easy,
but
catching
a
Lunker
may take
a
little practice. Picking
the
correct lure
for the
current conditions
and
learning
how to
adjust
the
drag will
help
you
land
one of
these monster
fish.

WATER TEMPERATURE
The water temperature will give
you
a
clue
as to the
activeness
the
fish.
If
the
temperature
is
about
65
degrees,
the
fish will
be
very active
and
will occasion-
ally swim
to the
lure.
If
the
temperature
is
either
50
or
80 degrees,
the
fish will
be
less mobile
and
you'll
need
to
get the
lure
as
close
as
possible
to the
fish
before they will bite.
SNAGS
Occasionally
you may
find that
you
have snagged your lure
on
a
rock
or
other obstacle. Watch
for the
"SNAG!" mes-
sage
on the
screen.
If
you
continue reeling,
the
line tension
will increase until
the
line breaks.
To
unsnag
the
lure, jerk
the
tip of the rod
upward quickly
a
couple
of
times.
If
you do not
unsnag
the
lure
and the
line breaks,
you
have
lost that particular lure
and
must choose
a
new
lure.
Starting
a
new
game will restock your tackle
box
with
a
complete
set
of
lures.
GETTING
A
BITE
You will have
the
best chance
of
getting
a
bite
by
controlling
your lure depth (with your reeling speed)
and
keeping
the
lure
at the
level
of
one of the
fish shown
on the
sonar
screen.
You can
also make your lure "dance"
by
tilting
the
end
of
the
pole
up
quickly.
When
a
fish bites
you
will
see the
pole bend, feel
the
game
shake
and see
a
fish flash
on the
screen.
If
you
have your
finger
on the
line,
you can
feel
the
pull
of the
fish.
Pull back
quickly
to set the
hook
and
keep
him on the
line!
SETTING
THE
HOOK
Set
the
hook
by
quickly jerking
the
game backward.

bend
and
shake
