About the Game

The Reel competition is here! Cast those lines, land the biggest catch you can!

Set the number of action points for the round with a roll of the dice or flip a card. The action points can be used in a number of ways!

Will you use them to upgrade your fishing skills? Go to the bait and tackle shop to improve your skills!

Will you go after deep dwelling fish? Use your points to cast, set depth, and then give the die another roll to see if you caught an extra special version of a fish you were chasing!

Players will also have to be mindful of turn order as players can block specific casting spots edging out the competition. Cast farther out and maybe you will be on your own, but you might not get it sunk as deeply to catch those high value fish!

Challenges abound as each attempt to catch a fish requires you to roll to see if you landed it. There is also a chance that the roll might land you one of the higher value fish as well!

Get your gear and hit the lake! The fish are biting and the competition will be Reel fierce!
