The player can participate in a tournament and Blackjack Bass.
The tournament mode gives you a limited time to catch the biggest fish.
In Blackjack Bass you have to catch 21 pounds worth of fish, similar to the game Black Jack.
Each time you catch a fish, you get its weight and can decide to "hit" or "hold".
If you exceed the 21 pounds you lose.
The player can row his boat around the lake until he has found a suitable fishing location, where he can cast his line and wait for the fish to bite.
Once a fish is nibbling the bait the player has to hook it and then reel it in.
When you do so you must make sure your line doesn't break by keeping an eye on the tension.
Weather conditions, time of day and location all have impact on the chance of catching a fish.
Each type of lure also improves the odds in specific types of water and weather types.
Somewhere in the two lakes also dwells the legendary Lochness Bass a giant fish which is yet to be caught.
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 Zebco Fishing 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 Zebco Fishing 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
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Zebco Fishing, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Game Boy Color titles.
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.
