Description

From the publisher: " " Your fishing club has decided to have a National Fishing Tournament with various groups within the club competing against each other. You will venture to Lake Erie, Lake Michigan, Lake Okeechobee, and Lake Temagami to fish for Walleye, King (Chinook) Salmon, Largemouth Bass, and Northern Pike. " " Your group, the "Motley Crew of the Quixote", which includes the likes of Dennis, Don, Bob and Captain John will be competing with the other groups. In the Imaginary Sense all table players will be fishing together as one group as you pay and collect from each other for various mishaps and team rule infractions which occur during the trip. In the Real Sense your own group -you- will be attempting to be the first to "Limit Out" in all four sportfish categories and return home to collect accumulated "Limits Pool" prize money along with as many other tournament prizes you can capture. " " The mishaps are real-life experiences and frequent. Catching Sheepshead, Carp, Suckers etc., will count against your performance. The prize categories are proportioned to give everyone an even chance to win some type of award. " " The object of the game is to win the most tournament prize money (you can use chips) while you roar about some of your own remembered personal misadventures ! "
