About the game
Tournament Fishing: Rods and Boats adds a couple new and exciting things to the core game experience! First of all, the Fishing Pole and Boat cards bring two new cards to each Angler's Starting Deck, which will be different every game. This addition expands the Angler's options and gives a strong boost to the early fishing game. Secondly, the new 6PM Clock card optionally extends the Tournament another round for both the Solo, Co-op (2 Anglers), and Competative (2-4 Anglers) mode. Give yourselves that one last "Hoorah!" and go out in style. For the Solo/Co-op Tournament, the AI Angler catches a 7th Fish of your choice. —description from the designer
