ABSTRACT:
A fishing toy or game has a square base which contains a rotating circular turntable representing a water tank or pond, and on which a number of magnetically attractive small toy fishes are placed as if swimming in a pond. A button-operated toy animal is swivelably fitted to each corner of the base and operates such that depression of the button brings a portion of the toy animal into momentary close proximity with the revolving turntable. Internally disposed springs quickly return the toy animal to a semi-upright position, even if the button remains depressed. A magnet is carried in the portion of the toy animal which comes into proximity with the turntable, and if depression of the button is accurately coordinated with the movement of the fishes on the turntable, the toy animal will magnetically pick up one of the fishes from the turntable.
