Cast, wait,
set the hook.
Start on a farm pond with a cane pole and a bobber. Hold to charge a cast, watch the float, click when it goes under, then fight the fish home without snapping the line.
Earn your way to mountain lakes, rivers, a bayou, tropical flats, the rainforest, a sport-fisher forty miles out and a fjord under the midnight sun. Every fish goes in the journal.
