Ice Fishing

Essential Viewing Before Play

Ice Fishing is an engaging and relaxing game designed for fishing enthusiasts. Whether you\'re in the middle of a cold winter or enjoying a sunny summer day, you\'ll find yourself on the icy surface, surrounded by breathtaking snow-covered landscapes and realistic first-person visuals. Equipped with essential fishing tools like an auger, rod, and bait, you\'ll be immersed in the perfect fishing experience. From catching small perch to hauling in massive pike, the game offers a variety of fish species and difficulty levels to keep you engaged. It’s a truly authentic ice fishing adventure, all from the comfort of your home.

How to Play Ice Fishing

Your adventure begins with a drilled hole in the ice, a fishing hook dangling ready for bait. The fishing rod has a hand-cranked reel, which you can use to reel in or out by clicking the appropriate icons. The arrows on the screen show the direction of the reel.

To attract fish, move the rod up and down. If you don’t, your bait may be consumed by smaller fish, and you’ll need to replace it. Once a fish takes the bait, you\'ll receive a signal. Quickly reel it in, but be cautious—pulling too hard might snap the line. A barometer indicates the right tension to avoid breaking the string, so keep it in the safe zone.

As you fish, your catches will stay on the ice. If luck runs out, simply move to another location to keep searching for fish.

Steps to Catch Fish in the Game

Place bait on the hook
Lower the hook to the desired depth by unwinding the reel
Choose the right depth since different fish species live at different levels
Attract fish by moving the rod up and down
When the rod tip moves, the fish has bitten—lift the rod sharply to hook it
Reel in the fish while monitoring the tension on the line
Be cautious of reeling too fast or too slow, as this can cause the fish to escape
Successfully reel the fish out of the water
Stand up, relocate to a new spot, and start again
Drill a new hole and resume fishing
Join tournaments and compete with other anglers

Bait Options in Ice Fishing

Larvae
Bloodworm
Shrimp
Corn
Boilies
Barley
Whitebait
Shrimp green
Spoon lure

Fish Species You Can Catch

The type of fish you can catch depends on the bait you use. For example, you won’t catch a Brown Trout worth $520 using bloodworms, but you can catch a Ruff worth $10 with them. To access more types of bait, you must fish continuously to earn points and shop upgrades.

Some fish offer higher rewards. Here’s a guide on which bait catches which fish. This isn’t a complete list, but it provides a good overview of the variety available in the game:

Carp: $80 - Bait: Bloodworms, larvae, corn
Ruff: $10 - Bait: Shrimp, bloodworms
Roach: $20 - Bait: Bloodworms, larvae
Perch: $40 - Bait: Bloodworms, larvae, shrimp

In addition to baits, you can also purchase rods and drills with your earnings. The better the rod, the larger the fish you can catch. Likewise, stronger drills are essential for deeper fishing. It\'s impossible to reel in a 172-pound Cobia, living at depths of 1640 feet, with basic equipment and starter bait.

Changing your fishing spot or location can also help you catch different types of fish, so explore new areas for a more diverse experience.

Enjoy the adventure and good luck with your fishing!
