The best fishing games for Android in 2022

We've selected the top fishing games for Android that you can enjoy on your smartphone for free.

Although video games are a way of escaping reality for many of us, it’s also a fact that there are tons of games that simulate real-life activities. Simulators have a lot of fans, and fishing titles are one of the favorite genres of them all. That’s why we’ve chosen to put together the best fishing games available on Android. It’s not all about simulators though; to add some more variety to the list, we’ve selected all sorts of titles related to fishing.

Fishing Hook

The truth is that this game couldn’t have a more obvious name. Here your mission is to adventure out on the water and try to catch as many fish as possible. Its gameplay is typical for the fishing genre: you have to reel in your fish by touching a button. The constant pull and release is essential so you don’t pull the line too hard or the fish will escape. It can get a little repetitive over time, but it does offer enough variety of different types of fish to make it more interesting. [Download]

Fishing Life

Fishing is an activity that can be highly relaxing for many people. This feeling is perfectly recreated in Fishing Life through very nice visuals and a soundtrack that matches the gameplay. More specifically, in this title we will visit the hometown of a man who spends hours aboard his small boat. While watching sunsets we will gradually improve the rod, the line and the boat to catch dozens of fish. [Download]

 

Hooked Inc: Fisher Tycoon

Lion Studios is a total expert in creating fun and simple games. And those two qualities are exactly what you’ll find in the colorful Hooked Inc, which offers a casual approach to fishing. Your adventures aboard a boat with your fishing pole serve as the theme in this addictive idle clicker. That said, instead of tapping the screen like crazy, you simply have to slide your finger around to catch the fish you see in the water. Careful with this one though — it’s hard not to get hooked. [Download]

The Fishercat

Not only humans are able to demonstrate their fishing skills. In The Fishercat we meet a clever cat that uses its agility to catch a variety of species. And it does not do it with a traditional rod, but rather dives into the depths of the sea and uses a harpoon to catch many fish. However, the oxygen tank will have a time limit, so we will have to be very fast to make the most of our stay at the bottom of the sea. [Download]

Desert Island Fishing

Ok, so we’re hopeless. We see a game with a retro look, and we can’t help but fall in love. But Desert Island Fishing is much more than an ode to the past, given that it’s a fishing game that’s as simple as it is entertaining. Its gameplay is based on tapping the screen at certain times, but the best part is its enormous number of unlockables. You’ll discover new characters and locations as you play. Plus, it’s hard to resist its chiptune music. [Download]

Rapala Fishing

While most fishing games are based on what happens outside the water, Rapala Fishing takes you down into the depths. After choosing the area where you want to fish, you have to move the hook so that the fish will bite. It has a more complex game style, but this is exactly what made it stand out from its peers. It offers tons of different settings to fish in and all sorts of fish and equipment. [Download]

Go Fish!

We don’t have enough fingers on our hands to count all the clones and games that are similar to Ridiculous Fishing. Go Fish! clearly enters into this category, but we’ve selected it for its graphics and simple concept. Your objective includes catching as many fish as possible, and you just have to move your finger around the screen to do so. [Download]

Real Monster Fishing 2019

More than 250 fish await you in Real Monster Fishing 2019, an incredibly entertaining fishing game. This title takes you back to the simple gameplay of pull and release using a button, but this doesn’t make it any less fun. You have an enormous catalog of equipment, fish, and locations where you can get to work. [Download]

Fishing Season

In keeping with the previous title, we also find Fishing Season. The Nexelon studio invites us to the vicinity of a river to catch as many fish as we can. Under a gameplay based on “quick-time events”, we will be in charge of getting our rod ready to cast the hook at the perfect moment. This way we will be able to catch fish faithfully represented by 3D graphics. In addition, the title also offers us a vertical perspective of the interface so that we can complete the processes with only one hand. [Download]

A Girl Adrift

The premise of A Girl Adrift is based on the wreck of a girl in the middle of the ocean. The main character of this Daerisoft game is in danger and only by catching numerous fish will she be able to survive aboard a wooden raft. This RPG combines a careful narrative with fishing and will introduce us to charming characters that we will discover as we advance through the sea. As we collect water species, we will improve the conditions of the boat until the young girl reaches land safely. [Download]

Pokemon: Magikarp Jump

This is one of our favorite Pokémon games available on Android. Fishing isn’t the heart of the game, but it’s one of the mechanics that you’ll have to use to become the best Magikarps trainer. The title is great and The Pokemon Company made a very smart decision in choosing one of the internet’s favorite Pokémon characters to star in it. [Download]

Ultimate Fishing Simulator

It’s time to get serious. Ultimate Fishing Simulator may be the best fishing simulator that exists on Android. It’s a title that will make anyone happy who’s looking for a more realistic concept. The graphics are pretty good and it has 12 real locations where you can take your fishing pole. That said, learning how to fish correctly is a bit tricky. [Download]

Fishing Clash

Catching fish of all different colors and flavors turns into a lively experience in Fishing Clash. You have to try to maintain the tension meter in the middle to get the best score possible. There’s not much more to do than this, but there is something especially fun about discovering new fish all the time. As usual in these types of games, you can put the fish in an aquarium or let them go. [Download]

Fishing Strike

Whether you like fishing games or not, it’s hard not to have fun playing Fishing Strike. The creation from Netmarble stands out for offering a complete experience without compromising its simplicity. Fishing becomes a total battle where you can use wacky power-ups in order to help you catch the fish you need. It’s a great game in all respects. If it were a movie, it would be directed by Michael Bay. [Download]

Tides: A Fishing Game

In Tides: A Fishing Game we find a striking universe inspired by Animal Crossing. In this game, we will guide the steps of our character along an extensive 3D island. Fishing lots of fish will be essential if we want to get totems that will allow us to improve our settlement on the island. As a trick, selecting a suitable angle for the rod is one of the important aspects if we want the fish to take the bait as soon as possible. [Download]
