Win with a smaller fish
If you play the game normally, you would need to catch a fish larger than 155 cm. Use the following trick to win with a smaller fish. Start fishing immediately as the competition begins and make sure that you catch a fish that is at least 145 cm before the clock reaches 07:00, and make sure that no one has caught a bigger fish when you get the first report from the other boats at 06:00. Catching such a fish is easier than getting a 155 cm fish . If you fail to get a fish of this size, or if anyone else has gotten a larger fish, then quit the competition and start again. If you succeed, press the reset button. The game will be saved at the moment when your last fish was caught. Keep playing on this saved game without getting any fish, wait until 07:00, and check on the radio if anyone else has gotten a bigger fish than your own. If someone has done so, press reset, and try again. If nobody has beaten you, then go out and get another fish. It does not matter if it is Sea Bass or any other fish. The game will now be saved automatically again. Wait until that the clock reaches 08:00 to get the next report from the other boats. Take a nap in the boat to make the time pass faster. If nobody has beaten you at 08:00, catch a new fish to save the game again. If someone beat you, press reset, and try again. Repeat these steps during all three days as the competition is running. Be careful when returning to the harbor after 17:00 to keep someone from beating you during the last hour. When the results are being shown in the evening after the first and second day of the competition, and your fish is in first place, go on to the next day. Catch a fish to save the game and continue. If your fish not is in first place in the evening of those days, press reset as soon as the results appear and try again. Repeat these steps over the remaining days to win with a smaller fish.
