MainStream Fishing 4+

Great, realistic Sierra fly fishing app, but there seems to be no way to move beyond fishing the same six rivers and catching the same species of trout over and over. Why did I spend so much time earning cash and spending it on flies for fish that don’t even appear to exist in the game (namely steelhead and salmon species)? Arrows point left and right on the maps but don’t allow you to switch screens beyond the same six rivers...seems like the developers never finished the game. Too bad because it was a lot of fun for a while (but now is quickly becoming boring) and was giving me my wilderness fix while stuck at home during shelter-in-place. Please update the app and add the ability to fish for salmon and steelhead!

Pretty easy to learn, great realistic sounds and scenery. The physics used for the currents are unique and add a lot to the game play. However, I’m always having to shut the game down when I hook a fish and my reel fails to pull in any line. The status bars don’t move and the fish just swims in tight circles in the pool I caught him. Another irritating glitch is catching a fish that appears to be strong and after a long fight his energy bar replenishes to half way over and over again. I tried upgrading reels and rods to no avail. Makes me not want to play cause it happens every time.

Great game just a shame i saved for every fly just to not be able to use them on the intended species i just want to fish for salmon and steelhead now but cant 😓
