About Fishing

Standing at the edge of a still lake or a slow-moving river, rod in hand, watching a bobber drift on the current, is almost meditative. Fishing asks very little, patience, a keen eye, and the right knot, and gives back something hard to name, somewhere between peace and anticipation. The gear itself has its own poetry: a well-worn creel, a brass swivel catching the light, a hand-tied fly drifting just below the surface film.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last — the trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps — never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
