Best Fishing Games on Steam
Fishing games split into two camps: patient simulators that care about line weight, lure choice and the time of day, and laid-back games where a cast is just an excuse to sit somewhere pretty. Both are surprisingly good for achievement hunters, because catch logs, species lists and trophy fish turn a relaxing hobby into a long, satisfying checklist. This list mixes serious sims with cosier picks and one that is not quite as calm as it first looks.
