Gone Fishin

Pack a worm, wave to the harbour, and see who says hello.

How to play

  • W A S D or Arrows — steer your boat
    On a phone: point your left thumb where you want to go — the boat turns to meet it — and use the big button on the right.
  • Space — drop your line (stop the boat first)
  • Hold left mouse — reel the line up. Let go and it sinks back down.
  • A and D while fishing — swing the bait left and right
    Put it in front of a fish you can see instead of waiting for one to find it.
  • When a fish nibbles — click fast to hook it!
  • Fighting a fish: reel in short bursts. Holding too long fills the tension bar and your line SNAPS — let go, let it drop, then reel again.
  • When a big fish makes a run, stop reeling and let it take line. It tires itself out.
  • E at the harbor — sell your catch & visit the shop
  • L — the Hall of Fame: the biggest fish anyone has landed
  • B — switch bait without sailing home
  • R — change rods. You keep every rod you buy, and a big rod on a little fish is no fight at all — for the shallows, pick up a light one
  • C — throw a bucket of chum to pull in predators
  • Signed in? Other captains' boats show up on the water, and the Harbour Radio shouts about every big fish anyone lands.
