It was better a few years ago. ### 5/5 — Idea for a new app *2013-11-06* Love all the ifishing apps. But did you ever consider making an ifishing Long Island edition. I have fished there many times. They have everything fluke, flounder, stripe bass, bluefish, sea bass,sand shark,porgies, black fish. And many places to fish the sound ocean and bay. Also the surf. But u could let the person chose where and how they want to fish. They could fish with lures, bait live or dead.(clams,squid,spearing,eel, etc) just something to consider. I think it would be cool ### 5/5 — Entertaining *2013-08-11, version 4.1* Brings the competitor and everyone And highly addictive! ### 4/5 — Best Saltwater Fishing game on iTunes *2013-08-03, version 4.1* Title says it all. Best, and most challenging fishing game out there. The multiplayer is fun, and the tournament modes are as well. I wish we could manually turn off the "Guide" voice. Other than that great game! ### 5/5 — Bad version *2013-07-15* Been a real fisherman for 30 yrs. the original version of this game was a relaxing simulation. This version is unrealistc and aggravating. Your line always breaks or the fish always 'gets away from you'. They revamped it to be a challenging but unrealistic game for a plethora of geeks that probably never have gone or will go deep sea fishing. If you love fishing pass on this. Save your money ### 5/5 — Great game! Wish there were more fishing destinations. Good background scenery, good special effects *2013-07-12, version 4.1* Great game! Wish there were more fishing destinations. Good scenery and special effects. Great fishing fun! Definitely recommend. ### 2/5 — Needs better line *2013-03-06, version 3.8* This is bs 99%of the time fish either get off the hook or break the line ### 2/5 — I like this game. But *2013-02-14, version 3.8* It says it has iPhone 5 support and retina display support. Well it's def no retina display. And does not use my full iPhone 5 screen. My friend on the galaxy has full screen and beautiful picture. ### 5/5 — Review *2012-12-28, version 3.7* I fishing one is great. I recently purchased I fishing 2 and on the level for catch Blue Shark it tell me that I caught a big one when it does not even over a pound. I can not catch anything over .85 Lbs. ### 5/5 — Cool *2012-12-09, version 3.7* Great app ### 5/5 — Great *2012-11-18, version 3.6* Great game ### 5/5 — A fishing game *2012-11-06, version 3.6* Keeps you on your toes fun if you fish the neighbor lady found it before me and have played for 3 years now. The only gaming app I don't cycle off the phone ### 4/5 — Ifishing SE *2012-05-30, version 3.5* Good game to help pass time through out the day :D ### 4/5 — Avis *2012-05-21, version 3.5* Mets plus despeces de poisson ### 4/5 — G-muny99 *2012-05-10, version 3.5* Excellent game,have had hours of fun. ### 5/5 — Ifishing salt water *2012-05-03, version 3.5* Hours of fun, but needs farther casting for I phones. Still love this and the other ifishing games ### 3/5 — mrs *2012-03-29, version 3.3* it is kinda fun and kinda cool ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Wow Pls delete this game FAST *2019-06-10* This game is the worst first i cast so hard and the bait just goes right next to me who ever made this game there a bad operator Plus way to many bugs ### 1/5 — Dd *2012-11-14* Fuc... ### 1/5 — I fish *2010-08-16, version 0* Sorry dudes - flick fishing way better ### 1/5 — Glitch!!!!!!!! *2010-06-13, version 0* When I try to join my bros game I just go straight to the home menu!!!!!FIX IN NEXT UPDATE ### 1/5 — クソ詰まんない *2010-05-27, version 0* 詐欺、だまされた ### 1/5 — Bad update *2009-08-15, version 0* After the update the baground like the skys and etc keeps changing and made it worse fix it then 5 stars Ps. Don't buy this app to people who r considering get ifishing the one in the lake had it for few weeks now no fish caught.ㅠㅠ no fish!!! ### 1/5 — DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY !!!!! *2009-08-08* ok first of all if you already own this game by now you will now realize the background has a glitch in it and it keeps changing and also is virtually impossible to find fish unless your on a certain level in practice mode..iv literally wasted an hour trying to find fish in tournament mode and the guy keeps saying there is no fish here or there or anywhere. . . seiously needs an update asap ### 1/5 — Shame App. *2009-08-04, version 0* Crash all the time. It kept toggling between different backgrounds and then crash. The program even warned you to reset the device every time before loading! Also very limited in term of graphics and no correlation with saltwater tacke equipment.( The boat, scenes, lures, etc look more like lake fishing). And many other bugs. I would really like a refund. ### 1/5 — Don't bother with this app *2009-07-08, version 0* I tried the i fishing lake version. Lots of fun. Buy this salt water version but it is a totally different experience. Instead of spending time fishing, u will find most of the time driving the boat to find the fish. Very frustrating. Don't bother to get this game, a waste of time. ### 1/5 — I dont think there are any fish here, lets try a different.... game. *2009-07-06* Ive been playing this game for a hour, my battery is dead, and i never had a chance to cast at anything. The 2 times i did see fish and tried a cast, he still says, "I dont think there are any fish here, lets try a different spot." So i go back to the boat view and watch the fish he says arent there swim off the screen lol. The first game is nice. I dont know what he was thinking this time around. I hope he can patch this up or something. It needs fish. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thank you very much *2021-12-15, version 6.1* Great games guy thanks Sometime to difficult 😔 but great 😄😃😀and fun Why you guys updating ?
