Take a closer look at the fish from Unknown Waters
When you take your family on a fishing trip in Webkinz Next, there is a chance that you will catch gorgeous fish!
There are six categories of fish to collect. Each category has rare, common and uncommon fish species and each of them looks incredible. Since the game doesn’t give users a detailed view of the fish, we thought it would be fun to post some close ups.
Here’s a look at the fish in the Unknown Waters category:

Dude I got the leopard shark yesterday
These are really nice designs. But still, I will not play this game because I think fishing is cruel.
I agree, I think the fish are extremely beautiful and I would not want to harm any of them. Moreover, I don’t think it is educational to have a game that supports cruelty to animals. They could keep the fish, but involve them (or something else) in a different game. Maybe how many shells can you find on the beach or how many fish can you SPOT while you are diving or something like this. I must admit, I have tried the fishing (even though in real life, I would NEVER go fishing, of course, but I wanted to see what the game is like), and trying to catch the fish was quite painful for my finger… no idea how you guys manage to do that all the time without typist’s cramp. So even though I think the prizes are really desirable, I won’t play a game that hurts animals AND my finger.
I just got an idea how the game might be changed in order to get round the cruelty factor: The players could be asked to take PHOTOS of the different fish. The game could basically stay the same, but without having to catch the fish, we could collect the photos and if we have photos of so many different fish (which we might hang on the wall or something), we get the respective prize.
I keep catching the same fish types. it is hard to complete the different categories when you get 6 of one and none of another. Oh well, the game is fun.
Thank you for posting another up close version for deep sea fishing! I was able to do a lot of fishing, but the mandarin fish is the only one that I need for the yacht! Every time I fish now, I always have my fingers crossed in hopes that I get one.
I have 6 mandarin fish. I wish there was a way trade for what you need.
I got my last fish (Yellowcheek Wrasse) today & have filled all the categories! What a great surprise! I plan to continue to collect until I have enough to get each individual prize, the grand prize & still have one to keep. Love to fish! Thanks for this fun activity.
My favorite is the Mandarinfish, also love the Leopard Shark and Peacock Flounder. Love these close-up shots.
Can’t get a rare fish no matter how hard I try
I cannot catch a rare fish
This has been fun. I finally got the grouper for the first time and was able to get the octopus chandelier. That is a lovely piece and I placed it in my new Seaside living cabin! I also got the little coral piece and the salt water column. I will spend lots of time at this new home.
I have gotten all of these fish. For those who do not know the mandarin is the rare fish. Thank you for having another deep sea fishing up close.
