Take down a variety of comical bosses in fast-paced, high-intensity fights! Cast your fishing line like a grappling hook to sling yourself around stages, while also using your rod to smack sea monsters into submission!

The One That Got Away…

Long ago, The Big One got away and forced you into an early retirement. But now, you finally have the chance to redeem your reputation following recent sightings of the mythical monster! Follow the trail of rumors while taking down other terrible creatures that have been terrorizing the coast, including Mini Minnow, Big Bass, Crude Crab, and Swordmaster Swordfish
