How to play Fisherman's Challenge on Mac
Game summary
A next-gen upgrade of Fisherman's Bait: A Bass Challenge for the PSOne. This one features five different lakes to fish in, each free-roaming and with seven different types of fish to catch including Catfish, Trout and Bass to name a few. There are a 110 different lures to choose from as well as 100 different rod and reel combinations to choose from. To catch fish the players must hit certain buttons when prompted in order to keep the fish hooked, the larger the fish, the faster and harder the sequences.
There is even a Fish Mood Meter that gives the player tips on why the fish aren't biting and how to remedy the situation. There is also a two-player mode, where friends can take on each other head-to-head or against an AI opponent in a series of mini-games along with the obligatory career mode.

Play Fisherman's Challenge on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Fisherman's Challenge on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
