BassDuel

Gameplay is organized into three-day tournaments, with each day limited to six hours of fishing time. Players select from three skill levels-Novice, Intermediate, and Pro-as well as a Practice mode that removes time and resource constraints. Players navigate lakes using a combination of outboard motor, trolling motor, or paddle, managing finite supplies of fuel and battery power. Fishing involves selecting rods and lures, casting into the lake, and retrieving lures while fish may strike based on location, lure choice, and fish behavior. Catches are stored in a live well that retains the five largest legal fish, and all fish must be weighed in at designated weigh-in areas before time expires in order to count. Fish placement varies by lake and session, with fish distributed according to underwater structures such as rocks, weeds, drop-offs, and docks. The game records notable achievements, including record-sized individual fish and the heaviest cumulative stringers, maintaining persistent honor rolls across sessions. Players may also compete against computer-controlled anglers representing professional bass fishermen.
