How to Land a Fish on the Rapala Fishing Wii Game

Instructions

1

Select Boat Mode to drive your boat to the fishing location of your choice.

2

Go into the fishing mode by pressing the -- button on the controller.

3

Go into casting mode by holding down the reel release. Adjust the direction of your cast using the four way directional button on the Wii remote.

4

Cast your line. Swing the Wii remote up and down and let go of the reel release to cast. The perfect cast takes practice.

5

Slowly reel your line in to attract fish to your lure. The Rapala Tournament Fishing Instruction Booklet suggests you try moving your line at different speeds and experimenting with lure movement to make your lure appear to be live bait. The better your bait looks the more fish you will attract.

6

Set the hook by jerking your Wii mote up all the way up. This motion will set the hook in the fish's mouth. You will know when it is time to set the hook based on the Set Hook Timer that pops up when you get a bite. If you wait too long the fish will spit the lure out.

7

Reel the fish in by moving the Nunchuk in a circular "reeling in" motion. Keep an eye on the Tension Indicator as you reel your fish in. Adjust the drag and reel as needed to keep the arrow in the green to avoid losing the fish or breaking your line.

8

Press the number two on the Wii remote to view the Livewell and see the fish that you have caught.
