Pond fishing contest: mix bait, read the float, strike and fight big carp!
Join a galatama, the pond fishing contest loved across Indonesia! Mix your bait, read every twitch of the float, strike at the right moment, then fight a big carp until your rod bends. The heaviest basket wins.
A STRIKE YOU CAN FEEL
• Cast with a pull-and-release slingshot and see the arc and landing spot.
• Read the float: a twitch, a slow drift, then it sinks. Strike too early and the bait comes off. Too late and the bait is gone.
• Fight the fish: set the reel drag, lean the rod against the fish's run, and never let the line go slack or snap. Your phone vibrates with the line tension.
• The rod bends and springs back, and every fish is weighed and dropped into a bamboo basket.
5 PONDS, 6 FISH
Carp Pond, Mixed Pond, Catfish Pond, Pomfret Pond, and Big Carp Pond, each with its own mood and fish. Carp, tilapia, catfish, pomfret, pangasius, and giant carp all differ in size, habits, and fight.
MIX YOUR BAIT
Pellets, moss, worms, ant eggs, or chicken guts, plus pandan, strawberry, or fishy scent. Bait size and depth also decide which fish bites.
CONTESTS AGAINST VILLAGE ANGLERS
Draw your fishing spot, hear the host, wait for the whistle, and watch the live scoreboard. Win by total weight, plus a prize for the heaviest fish. Four levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Pro. Your rivals are nine anglers with their own personalities who gasp, grumble, or cheer when you hook a fish.
PLAY TOGETHER
Create a group with a 6-letter code and hold a contest with 2 to 50 players. Choose the length, the number of rounds, and how the winner is decided. No free chat: only preset cheers, player names are filtered, and names can be reported or hidden.
FREE FISHING & FISH MARKET
Fish at your own pace with no time limit. Your catch goes into a keep net and is sold at the Fish Market, where prices change every day.
TACKLE & GEAR
Hooks, lines, rods, and reels each have trade-offs: pricier does not simply mean stronger. Show-off gear goes from Basic and Good to Boss and Sultan, with made-up village brands like Rajawali, Garuda, and Naga Emas, and other players see it at your spot. Everything is bought with coins earned by fishing at the Tackle Shop.
6 CHARACTERS & SHOW-OFF CARD
Play as Pak Dul, Bayu, Kang Darto, Mas Joko, Bu Ratna, or Dimas. Share a card with your gear and record fish.

• No energy, no account, no in-app purchases. Coins come only from playing.
