The performance too, with frame drops due to weather, and fairly frequent crashing. Choppy SeasĪs with a lot of simulation type games on the Switch, the visuals of this are awful. One important thing is to have towing insurance in case of any emergency. Once you have the right boat you can hire crew, which might specialise in gutting, or fishing and you can set them to specific tasks. Asides from some close calls, gradually building money past the early game isn’t difficult. There is also a bank where you can take loans, though I never really bothered with it. This also helps you to level up your fishing certificate which is based on how much you have manually steered the boat. Some prevent you from fast traveling which is very annoying but they pay handsomely. Mostly delivering certain fish to a port or cruise ship. Once you’ve done a bit of fishing different towns may have jobs for you. When docked you may also pass time, helpful in early game so you don’t have to wait for lines to be ready. Different types of bait attract certain fish which it will show you. Such as new line nets, and placing bait on them. In towns you can repair your boat, buy upgrades like storage and radar, buy a new boat and replenish supplies. This is all easily track-able with your log book and other options. The game has various weather conditions, seasons and fish spread and pricing depends on the month. Fish population can also be checked on your map to find the ideal place to set your lines. It is quite the lifesaver although other times you must go without it. You can fast travel up to just before 100m of a fishing line. This is so you can fast travel, as that is only possible through areas you have moved before. You can drive the boat in first or third person, with your radar you uncover more of the map. Sadly net fishing isn’t super different from line fishing. Various boat upgrades will give you a different feel of boating controls, and later boats have enough space for crew members and the ability to fish with nets. Fish can last eight days on sea, but as you upgrade you can put freezers on your boat to extended this time. It is a little finicky with the Switch joysticks but still worth the effort. Here you cut along the middle which is marked, a good job will increase the price. In town you buy bait to attract particular fish.Īfter all the fish have been collected you can choose to gut them. This is done by a circle closing it, the closer it is the better yield of fish you’ll get. The extent of the fishing is a small mini-game, where the fish will pull forward on the line and you pick them off. Returning some point later, with both buoys on starboard you can pick it up. You’ll head out on your boat and spread out the line. There are two types of fishing in this game, the first is line fishing. The Switch version is the complete edition meaning it comes with all boats, net and crab fishing content.
