Rapala Fishing Frenzy 2009 - Walkthrough overviewUpdate notes

This game is a fishing simulation in an arcade style, so it's not too realistic. It only has 9 achievements and all of them are quite easy and straight forward to obtain. Some achievements will take some dedication so be prepared for some longer grinds. However, the game is still fun so try to enjoy it while playing it

I will separate this walkthrough in the 2 game modes you need to finish which is tournament and quick fishing challenges.

So, enter your boat and show those fishes who´s the boss

Rapala Fishing Frenzy 2009 - General hints and tips

This game is rather straight forward, but there are a few things that might come in handy

ALL fish can be caught by using the default Lure! Some challenges will require you to use a certain Lure, but basically you can catch all fish with every lure which makes this game really easy. The colour doesn't mater for catching fish, also the depth doesn't mater (just to stay on the safe side, use the default settings).

Basically you don't have to move to finish any challenges. Therefore, you can stay where you started and start fishing right away (especially in later challenges this is crucial since you will need every second). If however you should struggle to find the right fish where you are, move to one of the hotspot locations, those are 100% guaranteed to have the needed fish

Have a good watch on your time. Only use the bonuses that help you reel the fish in faster, every other bonus will lengthen the process to catch it. After some time you will have an eye for the right fishes (if not, those that resist the most are quite often the right fish). If you caught the wrong fish, cut your line rather than spending precious time on them.

After you finished the needed challenge ALWAYS use the remaining time in tournaments to keep fishing. Try to catch many different fish since you will need them for a specific achievement. One of a kind is sufficient

Aim for high scoring fish, this is especially important on higher difficulties. Try to cast your line far away, use attract for extra points and reel in slowly. This way you can get a lot of points out of one single fish and also you get more multipliers the longer it takes.

If you fail an event, all the caught fish will be lost, so make sure to finish them all accordingly.

Rapala Fishing Frenzy 2009 - Story walkthrough

Hard Cup Master

If you used the extra time during each single tournament and caught additional species of fish, you should have the fish connoisseur as well. If not, replay certain lakes for the fishes you still need in tournament mode since this achievement ONLY counts in this game mode.

Fish Connoisseur

Caught at least 15 different fish species while fishing in the Tournaments.

Fish Connoisseur

Since we finished the tournament mode, we will now switch to the quick fishing challenges

Quick Fishing Challenges

Choose quick fishing challenges from the main menu. You will have noticed that the fish related achievements are missing. You should have around 20 - 23 of each after you finished the tournament mode. So basically what we do now is, we pick a lake where we can fish for the missing ones and concentrate on catching those for the corresponding achievements. This is really easy and straightforward and shouldn't take longer than 5-7 challenges. You can check your progress in the extras menu.

Largemouth Bass Expert

Striped Bass Expert

Caught 25 Striped Bass.

Now finish 30 in total of those. However, the fastest and in my opinion easiest challenge is on Lake of the Ozarks. Try to get the challenge called catch a 5 star spotted bass. This is extremely easy once you found a hotspot. However, the challenges on this lake are random so basically you can get this out of 3 different ones. Simply quit out and restart if you don't get this one and you should be fine.

Quick Fishing Expert

Successfully completed at least 30 Quick Fishing Challenges.

Congrats, you successfully finished this game on a full 1000!
