FIRST OFF heads up MAJOR UPDATE at least for me took about 5 mins to update the DSI (dont know if they are getting ready for the 3ds update or what

so i just got it and give youa basic idea what your looking at

game modes

Free fish (unlimited time and bass
rookie cup 3 stages 3 min time limit in each stage
pro cup 3 stages 3 min time limit in each stage (must place in the top 3 in rookie cup to UNLOCK)
legend cup 3 stages 3 min time limit in each stage ( must place in the top 3 in PRO CUP TO UNLOCK)
catch em all 5 bass 6 min limit
only golden bass score
unlimited bass 3 mins
unlimited bass 5 mins
unlimited bass 8 mins
unlimited bass 10 mins

there seems to be STAT tracking in each mode

Little info as soon as a fish takes the hook you need to push UP on the control pad to set the hook (it does not show this on the screen (had to go into help to see why the fish were getting off the hook)

sadly this game seems its going to be VERY VERY SHORT .. i was able to beat the 2 first tourament modes (rookie and pro) the first time i played it meaning i was able to beat 2 out of 3 tourament modes in 20 mins ...

Rookie mode
Stage one you must catch at least 6 pounds (you have no idea how big the fish are until you get them on your boat)

Stage Two you must catch at least 6 pounds to move onto the next stage (meaning even if you caught 50 pounds on the first stage and everyone else only catch 10 pounds.. if you do not catch at least 6 pounds you lose and you have to go back to stage one (lame)

Stage 3 no weight limit since its the last stage in the tourament

each stage is 3 mins and mostly going to be based on luck if you move on to the next stage or not ....
i caught like 30 pounds on stage 1.. 24 pounds on stage 2 and was lucky to get 1 fish on stage 3 for 8 pounds ......

still overall what i played so far what would i rank it.

I give it around a 6 out of 10.... short game ... really no replay vaule i have seen yet (though it will keep track of your best 5 pounds on each tour..) i would still say stick with Rapala Pro Bass Fishing for the psp is so far the best fishing game i found on a handheld

Edit.... after playing it for another hour still cant beat the legend cup...i can get though the first 2 stages but then i cant catch enough in the 3rd round to win... went back to the 2nd tourament and guess i got lucky the first time playing it cause i havent came in first in the other 3 times i played the 2nd round

Do you think the touch controls add anything compared to other fishing games?

just draw circles to pull in the line... i mostly use the buttons since my touch screen doesnt seem to want to work on this game much

I downloaded it and i must say it is pretty fun, and fishing works perfectly.
My only real complaint is the "showing fish" animation; the fish looks stiff as a board.
Also, the music button before starting a game is buggy.

The first time i played the game stopped and told me what to do whenever a new gameplay mechanic appeared, like "press up to hook the fish".
