The fish are plentiful this season, but the fisherman steering the boat is not exactly an expert, and his vessel crawls along at a snail's pace. That awkward start gives Novice Fisherman its charm: you have to make every pass across the water count.
Slide the boat left and right, lower the line when you are over a good spot and keep an eye out for sharks. When one shows up, bombs are the answer. Each level runs on a time limit, so there is a pleasing tension between patiently waiting for a catch and hurrying to the next patch of sea. The controls stay light, using only a few keys.

The left and right arrows move the boat, the down arrow lowers the rod, and space handles your other action. Keyboard play is simplest on a computer.
Sharks are the main hazard in the water. Use bombs against them so they cannot interfere with your fishing.
