Product Description This fun action game includes deluxe plastic game base, 21 colorful fish, 4 plastic fishing poles and instructions. Requires one 'C" battery (not included). 1-4 players.
Editorial Review The musical Let's Go Fishin' game is a test for the eyes, hands, ears, and patience. As the pond circles the base (to the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat") see how many more colorful fish you can catch than your fellow players. The trick is that the fish are moving up and down as they circle, as well opening and closing their mouths. Can you time it just right and bring home dinner? This game for one to four players includes four fishing poles, the musical game base (which can rotate with or without music), 21 colorful fish, and complete instructions. Requires two AA batteries (not included). --Heather Hawkins

Spins too fast September 18, 2009 V_bill 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
To clear up a few things: 1) The game uses 1 C battery, not 2 AAs. 2) There is no music as stated in the product description. 3) The fishing pole and fish are not magnetic as in other, smaller, wind-up versions of this game.
My biggest complaints are that it spins a little too fast, which means that the fish don't keep their mouths open for very long. And because the fishing pole is two plastic pieces with a small cone/cup shaped plastic knob (which is only a little smaller than the fish's mouths) instead of a magnet on a string as in the small, wind-up versions, catching fish isn't all that easy. It's not terribly hard, as I got the hang of it in a few minutes, but it's definitely not as easy as in the magnetic versions.
Lastly, the reason some people have trouble putting the game back into its box is because some of the fish are still in their "up" positions (sticking up, with their mouths open). You just need to rotate it manually until all fish are in their "down" positions. But be sure to only rotate it the way the thing normally rotates, though, otherwise you might damage it.
Also, I saw this at Target for less money.
My daughter loves it! June 29, 2009 Pianoboy (New Jersey, USA) My two-year-old daughter adores this toy; she only plays with it supervised, we are aware of the choking hazards of the smaller/slender pieces. She always asks for her 'fishing game!" A neighbor gave it to her for her 2nd birthday and it has become a favorite toy.
We also appreciate that it's a gentle game, without a ton of electronic noise. A classic!
great for teaching hand eye coordination May 9, 2009 goldfish (us) My 6 year old loves this toy but get little frustrated as the fishing rod is too sensitive to any hand movement making it harder for him to catch a fish. I guess having a speed control can help kids build their confidence.
Good fun with Let's Go Fishin May 9, 2009 BeetlesHouse (APO, Germany) It's good fun for my 3-yr old. It does help with the motor skills, hand-eye coordination.
Repititious fun for my daughter April 20, 2009 M. Weeks My 2 1/2 year old loves this game. The only problem I have is that there are 2 fish whose mouths won't open. I find it a bit boring (no challenge for an adult) but my daughter LOVES to catch the fishies. After we catch them we count to see who won.
