Experience the struggle to land a trophy bass from the comfort of your home with Championship Bass. The game gives you total access to six authentic lakes, where you are free to roam and fish anywhere in a true 3D world. The fish in Championship Bass offer varied strike behavior, fight strategies, and responses to lures, from false attacks to short-strike lunges. Dozens of rod, reel, weight, lure, and color combinations are also available to customize the experience.

There are four ways to play Championship Bass. "Bass Challenge" features over 15 scenarios designed to test your skills. "Fishing Trip" offers free-form fishing with a choice of locations and lake conditions. "Tournament" has you competing against six rivals, while "Career" is a series of six tournaments leading to the Championship Bass Classic Tournament. Instead of underwater scenes depicting dirt and water, Championship Bass showcases detailed lakes filled with docks, trees, vegetation, and rocks.

Features:
Includes six 3D lakes
Features four play modes: Bass Challenge, Fishing Trip, Career, and Tournament
