Okay, okay—-get a grip. So it’s raining outside and you had plans with the guys to go down to the lake and put the boat in and do a little bass fishing and drink a little beer and generally just lay back and enjoy the day of fishing and camaraderie. Well, all is not lost. You may not be able to get the guys together, but there is beer in the fridge and there are all kinds of bass fishing games on the internet that are tons of fun to play with lots of action—-and your day will not be a total loss. Get the kids involved instead of the guys and see just how much fun these online games can be.

First up is Bass Fishing Pro—-one of the most fun and most realistic of the bass fishing games found on the internet. As you get into the action of catching fish, you will move upward from level to level the more fish you catch and the quicker at it you get. But don’t get so involved that you lose track of how much gas you have in the boat, because when the gas runs out—-guess what, boat stops and what comes next? You got it—-oars come out and you are rowing after the fish. Not good for your rapid pursuit of fish, and your catching prowess relates in direct proportion to the forward motion of the boat. Make it a goal to never run out of gas and you can upgrade your boat as you go and as you win fishing tournament after tournament moving up the ladder of success. Good times had here.

Now we move on to one of the unique types of bass fishing games found online; this one is called Fishing Champion, and because it is cartoon based; it will provide all kinds of fun-based stuff. The casting action in this game is so realistic you will think you are actually fishing, and the action only gets better as you move into the realm of hooking the fish and then reeling it in. The point of the game is to get more and more money in your pot and move up the levels of difficulty until you reach the top. You must hook bigger and bigger fish to move upwards, and the bigger the fish is, the more money you will get for it. You can even get more money in the form of extra cash by hooking the bonus fish that appear along the way as you move from tournament to tournament in increasing levels of expertise. Lots of fun for everyone.

Here’s a real action packed game that is a barrel of fun and laughs for the whole family and that is Fishing Frenzy. As the name implies, you are putting your reflexes to the test here and pitting yourself against the merciless clock as you try to catch as many fish as you can before the clock runs out. When it comes to fun bass fishing games, this one can’t be beat because of the fast paced action and the whooping and hollering of the participants. The fun starts for real as the fish pulls the bobber below the water surface and you set your hook, and WHAM—the race is on to get him reeled in. Run with this one a few times, and you will be having the best time you ever thought possible with a game.

As far as bass fishing games go, this one is a real (or should I say “reel” winner). It’s called Reel Fishing and it tends to lean on the simple side of action, but nevertheless is a winner when it comes to fun for the whole family. The idea is to catch as many fish as you can, while you sit in a stationary boat on the water with the fish swimming as shadows below you. You cast at the shadows as they move constantly around your boat in circular patterns and you aim your line at the moving shadows. But, there is a catch here—-watch out for the level of drag pressure you put on your line, because if it becomes too great, SNAP—-and you are done. Good family game and will keep you entertained for hours.

Next up we have something called Survivor Fishing—-the premise of which is not new for all of you who watch reality shows on TV. You are out in the wilds, alone, and you must live off the land to survive. Foremost in your mind, in this more realistic of the bass fishing games, is the fact that you have to find something to eat, and lo and behold—–here is a river, and in the river most likely, are fish. So you start out trying to catch some supper in the river, but be careful because if you get too exuberant and pull too hard on the line, the pole will break and supper will not happen. Neither will the rest of the game—-you have to start from the beginning. There are options in the game to play with a character face on, or not; either way, it is challenging and certainly a lot of adventure for anyone playing this game.

Just remember, that even though your plans for a day of fishing in the great outdoors have fallen through; that doesn’t mean you have to give up any hope of fishing at all. Just browse up bass fishing games on the internet, and you will find tons of them that will keep you and your family entertained for literally hours.
