Fishing derby was one of my all-time fav 2600 games, I dubbed the shark "black bart". You might want to add that you can adjust the reel-in speed by pressing the button to go faster or holding the joystick "down" to go slower, and that your opponent can't begin reeling his in if you already have one on the line (and vice versa). This adds a strategy element to the game in that you can try to force him to feed the shark by timing it just right.

How can we submit ratings for games? I'd like to give fishing derby a 4 or 5 out of 6.

Just log in to the site's administration frontend (see your private messages). You're welcome to add ratings to any game on the site - unfortunately, this happens too rarely.
