How to Ice Fish!

▲ Pay attention to the direction of the arrow and rotate your mouse.
(2) Once you get a bite, try to successfully complete the minigame.
(3) The minigame will last up to 30 seconds, and your goal is to keep the fish in the blue gauge until its endurance runs out. Once the fish is all tuckered out, you’ll be able to catch it with your SPACE!

▲ Rotate Mouse (Right): Slacken the line and allow the fish to move away from the surface.
