Catch Bigger Fish
In free fishing mode select Lunker Lake. Then pick Set Up Environment. For Pressure go to None, Season: 4 mid-6 mid or 8 mid-10 mid, Weather yesterday: cloudy/sunny, Weather today: cloudy/sunny, Wind direct: east, Wind speed: 0.0-1.0, Water temp.: 60-70, water clear, Time: 6:00-8:00 or 15:30-17:30, Time lapsed: none. Note: Best lures are the popper or the spinner bait. The fish like hiding in the weeds. Sometimes the best place to fish is in the first set of sticks.
Hints:
When you see fish on the fish finder,
stop immediately and back up with the trolling motor about 30 feet.
The fish should then be right in front of you.
Cover the water methodically, casting out in a fan pattern from left to right.
If you hook a fish that manages to come off, keep fishing the lure back to the boat.
Often, the fish you just hooked will come back for more.
If a fish jumps, it's almost definitely a bass; if you get into a ten-minute battle
with a lunker that doesn't come up to the surface, it's probably a trout or other fish.
If your lure gets stuck, hit the X and Circle buttons at the same time to automatically free the lure.
Be sure to set the drag tighter when you use heavier line.

Move without wasting time:
To move without wasting time just hit the start button and go to the Lake
opition on the Menu screen. Select move and postion the cursor where you
want your boat to be. When you exit out of the screens you will be at the
new spot you picked and time should be the same as when you paused the game.
Hint: You should have a general idea of the Lake before you use this
command. My advice is to play the lakes in Free Fishing and get an Idea of
where the hot spots on the lakes are.

Press X + Circle to free your lure.Or, if you have the Bass Landing controller hit the button on bottom
