i’ve had an iphone for a while now and as any good fisherman would do i’ve downloaded just about any app that could or would relate to fly fishing (to this point its primarily spin fishing, but that will have to do for now).  below are a few thoughts on some of the games and apps that may get you through the winter if tying alone won’t suffice.

flick fishing – $2.99
|
one of the first i tried, has multiple destinations and a wide variety of fish species as well. some old guy will send you out to catch him certain species, which keeps things moving if you want. overall pretty entertaining.
‘brab’ feature allows you to email your friends your recent catchs. |

ifishing – $2.99 |
i think ifishing is the most realistic of all the games in that you aren’t catching fish on every cast. you have to pick your spots by motoring around the lake and then match your lure choice to water depth and fish species. |

hooked: pocket fishing – $0.99
|
should have know by the icon that this would be lame. really slow response, and the fishing controls aren’t even close to the previous two. don’t waste your time on this one. |

ifish – $0.99
|
super basic, but probably has the widest variety of species and destinations. by destinations i simply mean different back ground photo… which just sits there. not much to it other than you can catch all kinds of random fish in random locations. |

bass fishing battle- $2.99
|
the most like any fishing game you’d pick up for nintendo or sega back in the day. tournament style fishing.
pretty realistic for a game on your phone. you can add action to your lure by shaking the rod tip or move your rod to either side to tire the fish out. |

gone fishin’ – $0.99
|
the icon reflects the graphics and comic book feel of gone fishing. not as interactive as some of the others, and only a single fishing location where you have to reel the bait in front of stationary fish. might be better if you have kids who are always wanting to play with your phone. |
