How To Play
The game is controlled entirely with the mouse. 

1. Hold Left Mouse to start casting - the bar at the bottom will show your cast strength. Release Left Mouse to cast out the line.
2. Wait for those fish... and click Left Mouse when you get a bite!
3. You are now reeling in your catch. The red meter at the screen top displays the tension of your line - if it gets too high your line will snap. The green meter at the bottom will show the catch's energy level - if this reaches the max, the fish will get away. 
4. You should see the fish direction display on the left of the screen. This tells you which way the fish is swimming, and which way you are pulling the rod. Simply move the mouse to move your rod and you should see the arrow update. Holding Left mouse will reel in the line, and releasing it will stop reeling. Reel in the line while pulling in the opposite direction of the fish to empty their energy meter and reel in your catch!
5. That's it! Try casting and reeling a bit in the practice mode to get the hang of it before you attempt the tournament!
