Get hooked on the latest Fishing Clash update! Check out what’s new beneath the surface, take on thrilling tournaments, and unlock awesome rewards along the way. Whether you’re a casual angler or a fierce competitor, there’s something fresh waiting for everyone. Time to gear up and make your biggest catch yet!
Fishing Clash takes the meditative hobby of fishing and turns it into a high-octane competitive sport. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the 'duel' system, where you go head-to-head with another player to catch the highest-scoring fish in a set amount of time. It adds a layer of tension that you don't usually find in fishing games.
The graphics are genuinely impressive, with beautifully rendered water and detailed fish models that make the different locations—like Florida or the Mediterranean—feel authentic. The progression system is deep, involving lure upgrades and skill trees. While it can feel a bit 'pay-to-progress' at the higher competitive levels, the core loop of casting and reeling is tactile and fun enough for casual players to enjoy for free.
Real-time 1v1 PvP duels
Dozens of realistic fishing locations worldwide
Hundreds of 3D fish species to catch
Regular live events and tournaments
Focus your upgrades on the 'Common' lures first. Having high-level common lures allows you to win more duels early on, which provides the currency needed for 'Epic' and 'Mythical' lures later.
Once a fish bites, the player must keep the tension bar in the 'optimal zone' by tapping and holding. Balancing speed and tension is key to catching larger, trophy-sized fish.
Upgrade your lures and use 'Power-ups' like Weight and Luck before casting to increase your chances of hooking a legendary fish.
There are some things that could be improved on this game but for the most part it is a great game. Ignore all the bad reviews. I have somehow managed to gain about 21 levels in one day. How I did it, easy: Don’t worry about buying things out of the store. Use universal bait so that you catch different kinds of fish. Occasionally use draw in the rod section to possibly get new perks. Cast many times. Don’t hold down on the reel, instead, tap it so that it stays in the middle of the meter. Do some duels so that you get the pack. Upgrade your fishing cards whenever you get the chance. Spend pearls to speed up the time to open packs whenever you feel you need to. Catch fish until you fill up the star thing and get packs from it. Upgrade rods whenever you have the chance. Participate in championships. I have not yet seen the rewards for this but I am possibly still in 1st place and might see tomorrow. There might be a couple more things to do but most, if not all of them are probably common sense. I know this seems like a lot, but like I said, most of it, if not all of it is probably common sense. If you do these things, you will be good in no time. I started at level 6 today.
Was super fun at first, but then you end up spending money. Also I caught 4 different bosses that the game didn’t give me because it crashed every time I caught a boss. That was almost 2 months ago. Now I can’t even catch a boss even if I sit at the fishery and just keep casting 100s of times different lures, and just trying everything. 6+ people in my clan caught all 5 boss fishes at the Saginaw fishery the same day it opened, and it took me 3 days to actually catch a boss there and that was fishing for hours on Friday Saturday and Sunday. That was the first boss since the game basically stole the 4 other bosses. Used endless power ups just to be disappointed. I wish they made that more fair. Also It would be much better if the game didn’t crash so much, lag all the time, and just crash and collect your packs for you and you not even know what you’re getting. Also the power ups are almost slim to none getting unless you have a bunch of pearls (you have to buy them because they don’t give you very many for leveling up or rewards) and have everything upgraded , but it’s almost impossible to upgrade everything because you open a new fishery almost immediately after the last one you opened. Would be more fun if they gave out more power ups for rewards and the actual lures we need. It is fun at first, but you get addicted and some of us break down and buy some things.
Since the newer updates have come out, the game is crashing constantly! Money that has been spent is basically stolen from the crashes that are happening and the company has known about the crashing issues from multiple players! Some players don’t even try to send messages anymore to the developer because they usually don’t get a response! If you are having problems with your game crashing like I have, you better have video evidence of the crashes because they act like they think people are lying about this! Game used to be fun and had very few problems! But now the game is virtually unplayable for quite a few players and the developer really doesn’t do a thing about it but basically try to buy your silence with a few boosts all while keeping the amount of money that was spent on the items in the first place! They say, well you don’t have to buy anything but many players know that is BS! Just to compete in the events now you have to at least purchase some pearl packages or boosts or you will never be able to achieve anything in the game! They have changed the scoring in events to where you cannot get all the packages unless you do spend money! So for them to say you don’t have to spend money to play the game is disingenuous! You don’t have to spend any money if you basically don’t don’t play the game. So everyone’s best bet is not play this game! There are other fishing games that are just as good or better and don’t have any of the problems this game has!!!
I can respect the devs need to make money, and given it’s a free download with no ads there are going to be a good amount of pay to win mechanics. What I can’t respect is the insane amount they charge for the ability to compete in any weekly challenge. Want to catch the legendary fish of the week? That’ll be $10 just to get the right lures or rods for a one-off event. Want to upgrade your village enough to get rewards before the arbitrary timer runs out? Well it takes 36 hours to upgrade the lodge, which needs to be completed before you upgrade the two other buildings which need to be completed before you upgrade the building that ACTUALLY counts towards your progress, so you better spend some pearls to speed things up. And of course all of these require farming materials which take hours, which can also be sped up by spending pearls. Probably averages around 300 pearls EACH for the last 10 steps, which are on “special” offer for $10 for 350 in the shop. You get the idea. The worst part is that outside of the predatory microtransactions it’s actually a fun little game and I’d be happy to throw some money at it if the prices were at all reasonable, but given the direction they took the revenue model I could never support them or recommend this game to anyone that respects their own money or time.
I fell in love with this game and it has been great until very recently. There are a lot of bugs in the events and players are getting impossible scores. I’ve reached out to support with no response. I was cheated out of prizes by players having more points than is possible in the events. Also there seems to be an algorithm that when you upgrade lures and spend money you instantly start catching much better fish and when you stop you will catch nothing for hundreds of casts while wasting all power ups. This algorithm is present to make sure that players keep spending money and keep leveling up so they’ll unlock new fisheries and have to buy the license with pearls. Look, I’m fine with that algorithm being in place (just like the one that makes rod weight bonuses not random). However, you need to fix the events or compensate players that have lost rewards because of it. That is just plain unfair and those players were cheated. The first time event scores were wacky and you guys admitted your mistake (it happened two events ago when you guys were trying to implement something new). But a couple hours later you wrote that everything was fine even though scores weren’t corrected. Big mistake! Own up to your mistakes and respond to the players who are seeking clarity. It is beyond frustrating for you guys to not be transparent and own up to things because 99% of players won’t catch the errors and you guys can just keep collecting money.
I downloaded this game after all the positive reviews. I got to level 50 day 1 joined a clan and was told not to level anymore or I would lose. I listened to their advice. Most new players will level as a game intends you to do but this game leveling is the worst thing for you if you want to actually enjoy game play. That’s the 1st problem. Now let’s continue to address issues with this game….. dueling, there is no drip cap in duel trophies. This issue means that level 200 players can drop to the same trophy level as a level 20 player so new players…. Expect to lose… a lot! Fun…. Let’s continue. Every few days there’s a special event with fish that are only out for the event and will never return. You can participate, somewhat, without paying but if you want to actually place or get very far you will be forced to spend. Within an hour of fish release players will be catching fish 3x the base weight that a non player will be able to get so you are forced to tap out early during these events. The games very pay to complete, you can’t complete any event without actually paying to do so. The developers do a good job of trying to make things fun they give a lot of free codes every week or so and do release a lot of content. The game has a lot of potential but the developers are just missing something and not addressing their problem. Good luck to anyone who downloads this app, personally I’d rather go to the bay and charter my own boat to fish instead of paying the upkeep this game required and demands.
I’ve been playing this game for over three months and I can say it has been my most played mobile game ever. I enjoy trying to get higher starred fish and competing in events. But all good games have flaws and this game has a few. To start the dueling system isn’t that fun as I could play ten matches and win only two of them. The game will continue to match you up with players that have god rods or just have played longer than you have which will always give them the advantage to win the match easily. Another big flaw in the game is the events during the week. What I mean is that sometimes when I would log on for the day I would be placed in an event that I could do little in because I can’t win duels for the event or I don’t own the lures needed for certain fish making it extremely hard to win any prizes during the very short events. If the events were longer than a day or two it might be possible for regular players to compete in these events. But overall I enjoy playing this game and would recommend fishing enthusiasts to try it out.
I’ve been playing for about 3 weeks. In the beginning it was easy to compete in various events because you earn plenty of prizes early at little or no cost. So far I’ve only spent .99 cents on the game and it was a great investment. However, I’m now at a point that all the free stuff is gone and I don’t stand a chance in Tournaments or against other players in the PvP format. As a minimum you need power-ups to have any chance. But, the prizes you can earn are minimal, especially in the tournament format. If you aren’t in the top 5 then your prize won’t justify the money you spent on power ups just to get in the Top 20. If the Devs were to deepen the Tournament prize pool (Top 50), add a participation prize and make the game less costly to compete... then I would stick around and spend a little bit of money. But, as it is I’ll likely stick around a month or so to see if things get better. If they don’t... well, what’s one more game deleted? Response: I’m completely aware of continuing to get items at no cost and playing for free. However, you cannot compete effectively with other players without a ready supply of power-ups. To make a long story short it will take a minimum of 15 days to accumulate enough free gems to buy 50 of each of the 3 types of power-ups. I used that amount of power-ups in 2 days while trying to be competitive. So, collecting all you can for 15 days to be minimally competitive doesn’t equal fun to me. Having said that, if my suggestions or something similar are put into effect then I would stick around and likely spend a few dollars. Otherwise, like I said before, what’s one more game deleted?
