RODS
This button will display the fishing rods available for use in the game.


REELS
This button will display the fishing reels available for use in the game.


BAIT
This button will allow you to select a bait, or lure to fish with.  Each bait / lure will attract some, or all types of fish in the game.


RADAR
This button is a toggle style button.  It will lock the LCD fish finder onto a group of fish.  When the light on the button is on the LCD fish finder is in the locked position.  When in the locked position, you can use it to get the correct depth setting for the fish displayed on the LCD fish finder screen.  Each line mark at the edge of the LCD screen represents 10 feet in distance.  Use the number of feet displayed for the ocean bottom as a base to calculate the fish depths  (see picture below).

Note: The Radar lock will only hold for 3 minutes. You can then relock it.


LINE UP
This button will raise the line depth while the line is attached to the downrigger.

•	LEFT Click to raise the line by 1 foot.

•	RIGHT Click to raise the line by 10 feet.

How and why a downrigger works.


LINE DN
This button will lower the line depth while the line is attached to the downrigger.

•	LEFT Click to lower the line by 1 foot.

•	RIGHT Click to lower the line by 10 feet.

How and why a downrigger works


PULL BACK
This button will make the fisherman pull back on the rod to slow the fish.  This action will reduce line tension.  DO NOT pull back twice in a very short time frame, or you will create too much tension, and break the line.

Use this button along with the Reel button.

Be patient while you're fighting a fish.  It can take several minutes to land a fish depending on how many times the fish makes runs, and spools out line.  The fish will get tired after a period of time during the fight, which will enable you to get the upper hand.

You can use this button to SET the hook.


REEL
This button will reel in the line 3 feet per click, and will also increase line tension.

Use this button along with the Pull Back button.

Be patient while you're fighting a fish.  It can take several minutes to land a fish depending on how many times the fish makes runs, and spools out line.  The fish will get tired after a period of time during the fight, which will enable you to get the upper hand.

You can use this button to SET the hook


LINE TENSION
This displays the percentage of tension on the line.  Don't let the tension get too LOW or the fish will spit the bait / lure.  Also, don't let the tension rise to HIGH, or you will break the line.


LINE DISTANCE
This displays the percentage amount of line out in relation to the maximum amount of line the reel you are using can hold.


LINE OUT
This number represents the actual amount of line that is out in feet.  Use this number to adjust your down rigger when setting the depth for the fish displayed on the LCD fish finder screen.

This number is located between the Line Up, Line Down, Pull Back, and Reel buttons.


OPTION
This button will display the Options Screen.


EXIT
This button will exit the game.
