Text of the page (random words):
s it does in vertical portrait mode ho cotd is suited to practically any phone model with any button layout you choose where to fish from a detailed 2d map which you drive your boat around the map is animated so for example you can see where other boats are fishing if there are any and the depth of the water is visible from the colours of the sea or lake once you decide on a place to fish you just click the button and you re presented with a 3d view of the spot where you can look all round and up and down using a golf style power meter you press the button to cast your line and then press it again to choose how far out you want the line to go if you ve managed to obtain a depth meter you ll see a chart showing how deeply your lure has sunk which is important as different lures sink at different speeds and different fish live at different depths reeling the lure in keeps it at that depth though it may drag it away from an interested fish when a fish does try to take the bait the game s camera zooms in on the end of your reel and if the fish is ready to be reeled in a blue icon will appear telling you to press the game button this is where the excitement begins you have to get the fish all the way back to the boat with that distance represented by a blue bar at the same time the fish has to get away from you so it tries to pull on the line as hard as it can and the strain on your line is represented by a green and red bar next to the blue bar if you don t reel the fish in it will get away but if you do reel the fish in it will cause strain on the line your task is to balance the strain with the reeling and this is where the essence of the game lies in playing chicken with the strain gauge so that it goes as close to breaking point without actually breaking this is made very difficult by the constant changes in direction of the fish and you see it spinning you around in the main display occasionally even jumping out of the water in a rather spectacular manner if the above process sounds complicated it isn t you get to know the game very quickly and fishing becomes an instinctive process catching a fish feels very much like a duel which is probably as it should be if you manage to get a fish reeled all the way in you receive experience points based on how rare the fish is and how difficult it is to catch you can then either keep the fish or release it the game generally rewards you for releasing fish especially rare species sometimes you ll find a fish is very easy to reel in and then you ll discover it isn t a fish at all but an object of some kind it s worth keeping all the man made objects you find as you receive bonus experience points for removing rubbish from the water and the objects may help you solve certain quests particularly interesting are the messages in bottles that you catch from time to time which reveal the back story to the location you re in at the moment for example the costa rica resort has lots of ancient maps and messages from christopher columbus you ll also very occasionally catch a creature that isn t a fish such as a turtle crocodile or even if you re lucky the loch ness monster n gage arena as far as we can tell the only arena features on here are online scoreboards and various in game actions also earn you n gage achievement points for your n gage profile overall hooked on creatures of the deep is great fun to play once you ve worked out where all the options and status screens are and it gets even better once you ve unlocked things like the depth meter extra tackle and the other resort locations people who invest time in this game will be rewarded unfortunately the game s designers haven t made it very easy to do the things above the pause menu is far more important than its name suggests and the pocket menu also needs to be much more prominent so people can easily find some extremely vital things like the tackle box there really ought to be a tutorial at the beginning of the game taking the player through finding all these features because progress will get very very difficult without them infinite dreams know how to do tutorials they have an excellent one at the beginning of games so it s a shame they didn t make one for this game too another problem is that the amount of experience required to unlock certain parts of the game is far too high the main reason this reviewer has taken so long to write this review is because it took about two or three days of long playing sessions to unlock the first extra resort considering the average phone gamer is only likely to be playing this on their way to and from work it may take them weeks to unlock even one extra resort by which time they could well have become bored as progress seems so slow it also seems odd to lock these resorts at all as the player starts on level 1 in all of them and progresses in each resort completely separately it s also a shame that n gage arena hasn t been used for more than just scoreboards and some features touted last year such as putting your own message in a bottle for other arena members to read seem to have been dropped this is a frustrating situation because all the ingredients are here for one of our ultra rare mega game awards but unfortunately ho cotd doesn t quite make it however this is still one of the best phone games out there it has great gameplay which suits long and short playing sessions it has wonderful graphics it has depth and longevity the controls are simple and intuitive and it brings a new kind of game to phones too at 10 euros this is really good value for money there s so much to discover in ho cotd that it will keep you going for a long long time we feel very happy to give hooked on creatures of the deep our first recommended award for a next gen game and hope that nokia will get infinite dreams to do lots more n gage games if they re this good on their first attempt they definitely deserve a long term contract game download posted by abu71 at 8 39 am 1 comments labels fish games fishing games tuesday july 15 2008 how to keep your gear in working order tackle is expensive and in salt water it can really take a beating here s some simple steps toward saving that tackle difficulty easy time required 30 minutes here s how 1 when you return from a fishing outing wash your rods and reels immediately 2 use soapy water and a soft brush water from a hose will not break up dried salt soap and a brush is the only way 3 use the brush and soapy water on all reels and rods make sure to get every eye on all the rods 4 take every lure and hook that you used and wash them in the soapy water this prevents the hooks from rusting 5 the same goes for any tools wash pliers cutters and knives in the soapy water 6 make sure everything has dried before you store your tackle turn all rods and reels upside down to allow any standing water to drain 7 a small rag very lightly coated with a good reel oil should be used to wipe everything down after drying 8 follow the manufacturer s instruction on reel lubrication remember if you think you are using too much oil you very probably are a little goes a long way tips 1 if you use too much oil in a reel the oil will ooze and seep on the next trip you will find your hands coated and fish do not like the scent of oil 2 have a place to hang drying rods and reels upside down so the water will drain 3 always store rods vertically either hanging or free standing never leaning posted by abu71 at 8 36 pm 1 comments labels fishing tips tip tip pancing sunday july 13 2008 the hook setting kahle circle hook oshaunessy getting a good hook set is a key to catching fish with the possible exception of sheepshead setting the hook on a fish is at once both the easiest and the most misunderstood action that anglers can take i watch anglers all the time and i find that different anglers have different techniques even when fishing for the same fish hook types if a fish was caught the hook had to be set that s simple enough but who set the hook some anglers are simply lucky enough to catch a fish because the fish itself set the hook running away from the pull of the line in the case of circle hooks the fish sets the hook by design but on standard hooks it takes a conscious effort to set the hook on a fish that bites more important than anything else is probably the condition of your hook most anglers fish with the same hook sometimes on multiple trips just how sharp is that hook it should hang on your fingernail when the point is placed there get a good hook sharpener and use it fish species all fish differ in at least one aspect important to us here is the shape size and relative strength of their mouths seatrout have a very tender mouth and hooks can easily be pulled if too much pressure is applied at the other end of the spectrum is the tarpon whose boney mouth is more often than not unable to be penetrated by a hook flounder and fluke present yet another type of hook set they tend to hold the bait for a short while before getting it all the way into their mouth hence a delayed hook set is necessary billfish present an entirely different set of rules because of the way they strike a bait with their bill and then circle around to eat the bait in between all these we have a whole variety of fish that fall into a general category i call bottom fish bait types there is a difference in the way a fish takes as an example a cut bait versus a live bait they can usually inhale a cut bait and the bite that you feel needs a quick hook set live bait with a single hook on the other hand needs to be eaten so the hook set needs to be delayed to enable the fish to get the entire bait into its mouth artificial lures need a quick hook set to prevent the fish from spitting the lure when it realizes it has been fooled water depth line length and rod size most anglers fish with monofilament line that line has a stretching quality that can be significant in deep water if you are fishing relatively deep water fifty feet or more you need a longer rod with more backbone that hook set needs to be hard and long to overcome the stretch in the line and the longer beefier rod can help braided line can help the stretch problem but can still be affected by currents that put a bow in the line either way you have to overcome the depth to set that hook basic rules so here are some basics you can follow and questions you can ask yourself to help you set that hook and bring a good fish to the boat or pier know the fish you are pursuing does it have a soft mouth or a hard mouth how deep are you fishing what kind of line are you using how about that hook circle or standard what kind of bait are you using can the fish get it all in one bite simple rules make hook setting an easy task these basics can help if you pay attention and react accordingly tight lines posted by abu71 at 7 48 pm 12 comments labels hook setting wednesday july 09 2008 fishing rod buying basics fishing rod comparison many people looking to buy a fishing rod simply show up at the local big box store and pull the first rod that catches their eye off the rack others search the internet for reviews on popular upscale brands still others ask a friend or in my case write to me asking which rod to buy here are some basic rod facts that you need to know before you head out or go online to purchase one what kind of fishing are you planning inshore fishing inshore fishing means relatively shallow water and relatively small fish under 20 pounds for the most part so you need a rod that can handle a good size fish but not one that weighs so much you can t even fish with it casting casting rods are used with conventional reels and can be used with lures or bait for light bottom fishing they also accommodate floats and are good for free lining live bait spinning spinning rods can usually do the same things that a casting rods does they simply use a different reel a spinning reel spinning equipment can cast a lighter lure and is not subject to the backlash problems that an inexperienced angler encounters with a casting reel this is a good choice for a beginning angler bottom fishing either casting or spinning rods can be used for inshore bottom fishing the water depth current and amount of weight required to get a bait to the bottom helps dictate which size rod to use fly fishing if you are reading this and you are a beginning fisherman fly fishing may be the last thing on your mind but inshore saltwater fly fishing is extremely popular if you do plan a first time purchase of a saltwater fly outfit go with a prepackaged complete outfit in a 6 to 8 weight range this is a good midrange starting point heavier weights are for larger fish tarpon big stripers etc lighter weights are usually found in freshwater applications offshore fishing trolling the majority of trolling rods are built for conventional reels while heavy spinning gear is sometimes used trolling for dolphin and king mackerel conventional tackle is by far the most popular these rods are usually labeled by line class the igfa 30 50 and 80 class reels match up with the appropriate rod these rods are usually an investment they can cost that much it is not unusual to pay over 1000 for a complete outfit however there are some good rods that can be combined with good reels that can come in under 200 for the package bottom fishing these are the meat rods that many anglers have used to catch loads of fish they are heavier and stiffer than a trolling rod generally longer than a trolling rod and are able to stand up to the abuses that a big fish can give them fly fishing fly rods that are used offshore are built for punishment these are the heavier outfits that have large arbor reels reels that hold lots of line and come in weights from 9 to 12 these are very specialized rods for a very specialized type of fishing surf fishing surf rods are another specialized category they are made for both spinning and casting reels the choice is more dependent on angler preference than anything else these rods are from 9 to 12 or 14 feet in
