Most of the stuff. If you have any questions or comments please e-mail me at _ lroth@sk.sympatico.ca _ ********************************************* Introduction ********************************************* In this epic sequal to Legend of the River King, this is the new angling RPG that's headed to the sea's. This version is a bit different from Legend of the River King in the following ways: - The game includes boats - The game includes trolling - The game includes a new mode intitled the Virtual Aquarium ********************************************* Basics ********************************************* If you've ever played Legend of the River King, (i'm guessing that you probably have or you wouldn't bother even reading this FAQ) you know how the buttons work and already know. For those of you who don't, check another FAQ because I think that writing out the commands are just a filler section. ********************************************** Strategies ********************************************** - Always stock up on different varieties of food when you are at the equpment shop to always be prepared for the worst. Oranges and Rice balls fill up tiny amounts of energy, entire lunches fill up your energy to almost maximum when your energy is almost depleted, and if you're strapped on cash, your sister will buy you lunch. - Different fishing techniques will greatly vary with your choice of tackle, but there are also some other considerations. If fish are always managing to wiggle off your hook, it usually means that you are using the wrong hook size for that particular fish. If the fish nose the lure, causing the bell to sound, it usually means that you should change the bait because they obviously won't take it. ********************************************** The Rods ********************************************** Various rods can be used for various things, and no true fisherman should be without all of them. Anyway, to the rods: The Casting Rod & Reel: This Rod is your very first rod and reel, which fortunately for you you don't have to buy. As you gain experience and your experience gradually increases, so will the distance you can cast bait with this. It's also good to use the big sinker if you want to increase your distance with this. The Lure Rod: If you want to use spinners, spoons, and other assorted lures for casting, this is probably the best equpment money can buy. You should experiment with lures and moving them in different directions to catch different fish and suit your fishing style. The Boat Rod: With this rod in hand, you are able to set your depth with excellent precision; But the downside is you can't use it for casting. A depth of around 15 meters to 30 meters works best for catching most types of fish species. The Trolling Rod: Trolling may be and probably is the most energy intensive form of fishing, so like I said earlier, make sure you have a good assortment of foods with you when you head out to sea. It's easiest to conserve energy when doing this by letting the boat drift through schools of fish on the current. ********************************************** The fish and where to find them ********************************************** BAIT LURE FLY S H L F M K S H F M F S P V C S J W Y B Y B S H S F i o n i u r a o i a o i r p i o o o l p o q l z o g s s i n r l c M M p b a o g r Y n u u e r u y e k h s l d s l k i i p r n o m e i n e a n i i W e l e e e n n e a k n l t g r e d n o W l C t r n n r t l o M f d g r o r M e o o i B o T a i m r a k l w w o a w F u r s F m b l n i t l n l h i t a y a i s i n h l : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Black Rockfish 12-24 S * * * * * * Black Sea Bream 20-40 M * * * * * * * * * * Blowfish 6-14 S * * * B Fat Greenling 13-33 SM * * * * * * E Goby 7-19 S * * * * * A Opaleye 28-48 M * * * * * C Parrot Fish 24-44 M * * * * H Rockfish 14-26 S * * * * * * * * Scarid 16-36 SM * * * * * * * Sea Bass 34-66 M * * * * * * * * * * * * SpotParrotfish 20-40 M * * * * Y Yellowtale 28-48 M * * * * * * * * * * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Conger Eel 24-61 SM * * * * * * * * * * * * Flathead,female20-40 M * * * * * Flathead,male 12-24 S * * * * S Halfbeak 11-23 S * * * * * H Halibut 29-61 M * * * O Horse Mkl. 13-33 SM * * * * * R Mackerel 28-48 M * * E Sardine 5-13 S * * * Sea Bream 12-24 S * * * * * * Silver Whiting 13-33 SM * * * Squilla 8-20 S * * * * * * * * * * StarryFlounder 20-40 M * * * * * Wrasse 10-22 S * * * * * * * * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blue Runner 12-24 S * * * * * CalifWhitetail 44-76 M * * * * * * * * * * Cuttlefish 20-40 M * * * * * Filefish 10-22 S * * * * * * * * * C Grunt 18-38 SM * * * * * * * O Hiragi 8-20 S * * * * A Horned Shark 53-97 ML * * * * * * * * * S Kanpachi 53-97 ML * * * * * * * * * * * * * T Lion Fish 13-33 SM * * * * * * * * MS Yellowtail 44-76 M * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Octopus 29-61 M * * * Parrotfish,adult44-76 M * * * * Skate 34-66 M * * * * * * * Spanish Mkl. 59-97 ML * * * * * * * * * * * SpotParrotfish 44-88 ML * * * * Tilefish 20-40 M * * * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlaskanPollack 32-64 M * * * * * * * * * * * Alfonsino 28-48 M * * Balloonfish 14-34 S * * * * * Bluefin Tuna 138-202 L * * * * * * * * * * * * O Bonito 48-92 ML * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * C Crevalle Jack 38-70 M * * * * * * E Dorado 53-97 ML * * * * * * * * * * * A Moray Eel 29-61 M * * * * * N Red Sea Bream 39-71 M * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Sailfish 148-212 L * * * * * * * * * * * * Sand Fish 58-102 ML * * * Spear Fish 168-232 L * * * * * * * * * * Tuna 68-132 L * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Yellowfin Tuna 44-76 M * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Yellowtail 68-112 ML * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ******************************************** Virtual Aquarium mode ******************************************** The virtual aquarium mode is one of the new features added to this game. It is sort of like the pri-mortial soup or what-ever its called. It involves you taking on different tasks to determine what they evolve into. The WP, or watchpoints, also refers to how much time you spend watching your fish. The WatchPoints are pretty much all that determines the evolvation, but that can change... You can also breed new species of fish with a friend if you have a cable link and two cartridges, or you can trade for fish you don't have! ******************************************* Legal Junk ******************************************* This document copyright (c) Cam Roth If you wish to use this document in any way, please e-mail me for verification.
