Tight Lines is here because I wanted a fishing game instead of troubleshooting graphics settings in games about fishing. I'm getting rid of the confusing or irrelevant extras that make fishing games inaccessible with the aim of capturing the simplicity of going out on the water. The goal is to have something in here for everyone. Take a lunch break to fill the stringer or spend an evening in hopes of hooking a musky.

Let's go fishing—tight lines!
