A Catfish for example will be one rectangle that surroundsfive squares in a row. Each player has one Catfish, oneTrout, one Bass, two Crappie and three Bluegill (which eachoccupy just one square each).Once both players have drawn their fish on the board, play begins. The first player will call a grid square, for example "B3". Their opponent will answer 'Fish' or'Miss'. If they 'hit' their opponent's fish, they mark that square with a circle on their opponents board andmake another guess. Guesses (casts) continue until they 'miss'.Misses should be marked with a cross on the opponent board.Once the player misses, it is the opponents turn to guess (cast).Play continues until one player hits all of his opponents fish.Fishing Tournament variation: Advanced players may fire (cast) an agreed amount of multiple casts (guesses)at timeand may answer like this, "Three fish and two misses" sotheir opponent must deduce which casts were successful.
