ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a simulated fishing tournament that is played out on a game board bearing a representation of a body of water. The players, as represented by their respective game pieces, follow a path formed by a continuous series of identified board spaces and attempt to collect simulated fishing baits that are later used to catch a variety of fish species as represented by Bite cards. The player, weighs his or her catch by rolling a die or dice and records the numerical value of the dice roll on the Bite card in poundage. The players encounter a variety of situations created by game play that involve environmental, conservation and sportsmanship issues. The game is intended to provide an atmosphere that is exciting and enjoyable for the participants and serve as an educational tool for those unfamiliar with the activity of fishing or fish species.
