Euro Fishing immerses you deep into the adrenaline-packed action, fun and beauty of Europe’s most famous lakes. Sounds okay, and the graphics look quite nice too.

On their forum they stated simply this:
QuoteHello everyone,

we're happy to announce that we're working on a Mac & Linux version of the game that will be released in the next few weeks.

More news soon.

About the game
Euro Fishing immerses you deep into the adrenaline-packed action, fun and beauty of Europe’s most famous lakes. Master your rod, line and tactics, and refine your technique to become a top angler. This is the closest you can get to real fishing from the comfort of your own sofa. Welcome to the Great Indoors!

Whether you’re a fishing beginner or angling pro, Euro Fishing accurately and authentically replicates the feeling of actual fishing using our unique physics-based casting and reeling system, ‘Total Cast Control’.

Start by learning the basics of casting with in-game tutorials, or dive straight into one of the five unique European locations included, such as Digger Lakes and the famous St John’s Lake at Linear Fisheries, each posing their own unique challenge to land the big catch.

'Adranaline-packed action' and fishing are two words I never thought I'd read together ;-)
Then again, who knows, maybe it's about zombie-fish and fishing with dynamite!

This one looks better than the last one. Might be a game my dad would be into.

Boy, this sure is a great time to be a uh.. fishing-simulator enthusiast the uses Linux! All 12 of them will be so excited.

But seriously it's good to see all of these new genres finally make their way to Linux.

Fishing... adrenaline-packed action? Now, I'm not exactly Kevin VanDam, but I have partaken in a spot of fishing on more than a few occasions in my life and "adrenaline-packed action", is not exactly how I would describe those experiences. I mainly went fishing to relax and enjoy the outdoors and drink a couple beers. Maybe I was doing it wrong?

On a serious note, this looks pretty cool. I'll keep my eye on it at the very least.

That is absolute nothing against "Rod out, the fun begins!" (original "Rute raus, der Spaß beginnt!" ) a german fishing film series title.

I will likely pick this up. I've had three good fishing game experiences in my lifetime: Super Black Bass (SNES), Sierra Trophy Bass 3D (Windows 9x), and to a lesser extent, Rapala Pro Bass Fishing (PS3, complete with oversized rod controller). Oh, and I actually LOVED the fishing mini-game in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (GameBoy).

I expect Euro Fishing to match none of those, but I'll never know unless I try it. If it sucks, I can just get a refund and then go to a lake and pull out some trout for real.

Ever catch a 6 and a half foot gar with 5 inch teeth? That does pretty well at getting the adrenaline flowing.

Does it make me a bad vegan to want to play a fishing game? Probably.
