Players now have over forty different locations to fish from in seven different regions.

Staying true to the first version's realistic controls, players use the Wii Remote™ and Nunchuk™,to battle fish as you would in real life. Pull the Wii Remote left and right as the fish fights you from the end of the line and adjust your drag to avoid breaking your line. Once you have your skills down, take on some friends with four-person multiplayer modes.

Additional new features in FISHING MASTER WORLD TOUR include 'Boss Battles' where players can catch rare fish with exclusive boss battle controls. A 'Trolling' mode has also been added to allow players to fish off the coast in places like Hawaii on the back of fishing boats. Who will be the first to hook the Big One?

Other significant enhancements to the sequel are the multiplayer modes.
