The premise, in the publisher's words

Fishing Kōshien II is a fishing game based on a TV show produced by TV Osaka, and a follow-up to Fishing Kōshien. It features an identical format to the previous game: eight teams of three enter a fishing tournament, and each round challenges the player to a different kind of fishing. The four rounds consist of a black bass tournament, offshore boat fishing in Kenzaki, a carp relay race, and a big game survival match. Compared to the first game, the visuals have been revamped to use full-3D fish models rather than the 2D sprites of the original.
