Keep the aim in sight
Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Refer to the controls when needed.

Controls

A useful example
Alternating reeling and release avoids snapping the line. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.
Watch out for this
Early hooks, missed bites and excessive tension lose a cast. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
