Rapala Pro Bass Fishing — More Than Just Your Average Catch

Like fishing, hate the lake? Well, Activision might have something just for you — Rapala Pro Bass Fishing. And yes, you guessed it — it’s a fishing title for 360, PS2/3, PSP, Wii, and DS.

For the first time ever, the PS3 and 360 versions will be available with a Rapala Rod & Reed controller. Naturally, Wii owners will be able to purchase a Rapala Rod & Reel peripheral as well. The controls will feature full motion control, where players will be able to cast, reel, and do other things which you need to do when fishing.

The game will be set up in a professional tournament structure, and it offers everything you’d find at a tournament. This means, you’ll be fishing in some of the top freshwater lakes in North America.

“Pro tournament action is all about the intensity and adrenaline of live fishing competition,” said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. “Rapala Pro Bass Fishing captures every detail from the starting line to the championship trophy presentation.”

Game modes include simultaneous 2-player mode, challenge friend contests, solo-fishing and tournaments.

Not too sure about a local release, but it would be cool. Wouldn’t it?
