Disappointed but hopeful.
Tue Sep 22 2015 RonconnorssrBiggest issue! This is a paid app. Not an upgrade or lite version. Why do I get an ad?
Other issues include:
Less than realistic depth and casting perception.
Difficult directional control casting.
Background assistant should be optional. I don't need someone incorrectly telling me my fish is to small when it's actually the wrong species.
Never in any tournament does timeout occur with a fish on line. Nough said there.
On the favorable side.
Graphic backgrounds are nice.
Most of the time landing the fish is ok. Just ok. Some timing issues and line break conditions need help.
I will continue to use the app in hopes that future revisions will make this more enjoyable.
Could be good, but unplayable
Fri Jul 03 2015 aSoggyCrouton91This app is literally almost unplayable. I have yet to get through a ten minute tournament without the app closing and bumping me back to my iPhone's main screen. Considering tournament mode is the only mode in the game that lets you unlock items through cash earnings, the game can therefore be deemed "unbeatable". Also, even if the game didn't crash, the developer has removed the beloved boat mode that was in the first I Fishing which gave about twice as much depth and strategy to the game. Why he would remove such a nice aspect of gameplay is beyond me. I can only assume he has done so to make a quick three dollars. I have an updated iPhone 6 that I take care of, so if I have problems running the game so will you. It's a shame, the game had real potential.
Shuts off in the middle
Tue Jun 30 2015 EwaraksaIt's good ! BUT it shuts down in the middle of anything !! Very frustrating! Paid $2.99 and can't even play it ! And no "contact" option to contact technical support ! Need update or something to fix ! Will change review if this gets fixed
Pretty but basically a broken game
Mon Mar 31 2014 DaWampsterThe game looks pretty, however the game is basically broken... If you catch a fish that puts you near the top of the tourney, simply close the app and come back in ten min and presto, you have won. The timer does not stop when you close the app.
The other thing is that for any fish, hook it, let it take line past 55 and then reel in. Basically works every time regardless of fish species
Hopefully it will improve in future updates, but for now I am regretting not purchasing ifishing 1 instead....
5 stars to be seen
Wed Aug 23 2017 Mason44444444567It will work for a Minute then it stops working please fix cause it seems like an awesome game
Insulting to be honest
Mon Mar 04 2019 ExceptTheGreyBought it for use on Apple TV. Could barely use it and before even catching a fish had to give up. The graphics, if you could even call them that, are a hideous blend with real video that just doesn’t work. Going to try and get a refund for sure.
It shuts of all the time

They Ruined It
Thu Apr 10 2014 ImissBordersDon't waste your money on this "improved" version. It crashes consistently during play. Tournaments are 10 minutes long and unlike previous versions of this game you may no longer chose where you wish to fish, which challenge to fish, nor can you fish another spot during tournament play. You must win tournament prize money to buy more lures, poles, and fishing line. However these upgrades are $1000's if not $10,000's of dollars and the max you win at a tournament is $300. The only positive thing about this "new" version of the app is kids mode. But seriously it is so not worth wasting real money on. Buy the other two apps not this one. They ruined it.
Excellent app! Needs 1 fix!
Sun Oct 20 2013 Erik the BassmasterThis is one of the best fishing simulators out there! I played the first i fishing and the saltwater edition. This game is so realistic and fun to play to pass time. One thing they should fix is the occasional crashes. Other than that its a must buy app!
