Fishing Games

Tiny hook fishing games

In a tiny hook fishing game you drop a line from a little boat, let the hook sink as deep as the line will go (keeping clear of stinging jellyfish), and then catch every fish you touch on the way back up. You sell the catch, buy a longer line and a bigger hook, and go deeper every time. Tiny Hook Fishing has 600 metres of ocean in six zones, 38 species, golden fish worth extra, treasure chests and the legendary Rainbow Leviathan waiting at the very bottom. Your boat also earns money while you are away. Tiny Hook Fishing: Frozen Lake is ice fishing through a hole in a frozen lake, with 27 freshwater species and the Sturgeon King. Tiny Hook Fishing: Deep Abyss goes down 900 metres at night, where most of the fish glow and you need a lamp to see.

Eat and grow fish games

Here you are the fish. In Fishy Frenzy you swim after fish smaller than you, grow bigger with every bite and keep away from the big fish with the red glow. It has 15 levels in three oceans, an endless mode and a two-player mode on one keyboard. Feed and Grow Fish 3D is the same idea in a full 3D ocean: start as a tiny clownfish on a coral reef, eat your way up through five sizes, explore a kelp forest, the open ocean and a deep trench, unlock sharks and orcas with DNA and take on the Megalodon.

Fishing simulators

Lake Fishing Simulator 3D is a calm, realistic lake fishing game. Row around Pinecrest Lake, read the water, pick the right lure for each spot, watch your bobber, strike when it goes under and play the fish on a tension bar. Bass, pike, trout, walleye and catfish each like different places, times of day and weather, and there are three bass tournaments against rival anglers. Deep Sea Fishing Boat 3D takes you out of a marina in your own boat to find schools on the sonar, troll for tuna and marlin or drop a line to the bottom for snapper and grouper, then sell the catch at the fish market.

Fishing games for little kids

Magnetic Fishing Game is the classic spinning toy fishing pond on screen: the fish open and close their mouths as the pond turns, and you tap when the magnet is over an open mouth. Extra modes practise colours, counting to 12 and letters, and every prompt is read aloud. In Panda Fishing Pond, Pip the panda catches fish for a queue of hungry friends who ask for "two orange fish, please". There is no timer and no way to lose. Kitty Goes Fishing is a little more of a challenge: Lio the cat casts from a rowboat, fights each fish on a tension needle and fills a fish journal, with new lakes, rods and lures to unlock.

Go Fish card games

Go Fish is the classic card game with a standard deck: ask the other players for a rank, collect books of four, and go fish when they say no. Play against one to four computer players, from Easy to Hard (the hard ones remember what you asked for). Go Fish for Kids uses picture cards of ten sea animals, collects pairs instead of fours and reads every card aloud, so children who cannot read yet can play.

Fishing tycoon and coloring

Fishing Fleet Tycoon is an idle game: start with one rowboat, sell the catch, buy fishing boats, trawlers and finally a megaship, hire captains so the boats sail by themselves and move to bigger ports. Fishing Coloring Pages has six fishing pictures to colour online, print or save, from a dock day to ice fishing and a kitty fishing at night.

Fishing tips that work in every game

Different fish live at different depths, so if you keep catching the same small fish, go deeper or move to a new spot. When a fish is on the line, never hold reel all the time: let the fish run when the tension climbs, then reel while it rests. Upgrades that let you go deeper or carry more usually pay for themselves fastest. And golden or glowing fish are rare and worth a lot, so keep an eye out for them.

Why kids love fishing games

Fishing games are a gentle mix of patience and excitement. Waiting for a bite teaches calm, timing the strike and playing a fish on the line builds fine control, and the journals and collections give children a reason to explore and learn the names of real fish. The little-kid games also practise counting, colours and letters along the way. Every game works with a mouse, keyboard or touchscreen and saves progress only in your own browser.
