Fishing

Players use trick-taking rounds to capture cards that count as points and become the hand for the next round. Rounds start with a fixed hand size that grows with player count; standard follow-suit, highest-card-wins trick rules apply. New cards enter from a common ocean deck in waves, adding higher-value colored cards, a green trump suit, 0-value steal cards, and special buoy cards that bypass follow-suit restrictions and trigger effects such as stealing tricks, forcing passes, or changing the lead color. Each captured card is worth one point, and play proceeds for eight rounds to determine the final score.

    Clever little trick taker. I want to play a few more times to hone in on a strategy, but this one works for me. The cleverness makes sense and fits the theme vs others that feel more gimmicky
