Nice and simple, thanks for submitting this to the stream!

The visuals look pretty nice, and I like how you play as the mouse cursor instead of any specific fish. I wish there was something else in there though that could add more stakes to the gameplay loop. I did like how two fish could get hooked at the same time, but maybe one species of fish can be more valuable than another, so you'd have to do some decision making in which fish you want to save? Just an idea, but nice job!

It's funny and beautiful. :)
But i had some difficulties with the control, i don't know if it is intended that a grab affects the fish after some seconds but has cost me some of my fish ;(

This was really fun! I like the concept. The fish really feel like they have a personality, a handful of times I was like "no get away you idiot", the fact that they only kinda cooperate is really good for this game.
