Once the day of the fishing tournament is over, the five largest bass that were caught get weighed and are compared to the other fisherman's catches.
The one with the heaviest catch is the winner.
The player starts off choosing an angler.
Then the player can either go to the bait shop, practice pond, or start in the tournament.
In the bait shop, choices of baits, lines, rods, reels, fish finders, and boat engines are available for purchase.
The practice pond mode is just where the player can cut his teeth on the game mechanics without consequence.
The tournament mode is the main part of the game.
Players start out in a fishing boat.
Some of the factors that can affect your fishing are temperature, wind speed, water clarity and time of day.
After casting the line, the game goes from an above the lake view to a side view of the lake water depths.
Then it's just up to the player to attract the fish with the bait, and after the fish is caught on the hook, reel it in.
About Game Boy Color
The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.
Gamevaro tracks Bass Masters Classic for Game Boy Color with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Bass Masters Classic to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GBC release dates back to 1999.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Bass Masters Classic has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
