about the risks and hazards that the sport entails and declines all responsibility in the
case of non compliance to safety instructions and/or of inappropriate use of its fishing
simulators.
The practice and use of this equipment must be covered by third-party
insurance.
Any person who undertakes a fishing simulation must be in good physical
condition. BIOUSSE SAS declines all responsibility in the case of
cardiovascular, articulations, muscular and breathing accidents incurred
by any person practising fishing simulations on one of its simulators.
The simulation of sports fishing involving fish of more than 30 pounds in
weight is forbidden to anyone under the age of 16.
The use of simulators by untrained 16 to 18 year olds requires permission

Installation and start up
Warning:
BIOUSSE SAS will in no circumstance be held responsible for an incorrect
installation carried out by a user leading to injuries and/or the total or partial
destruction of one of the simulator’s elements.
When starting up the « Simfish simulator please proceed as follows:
1. Take the fixing base and fix it firmly to the ground or on a removable support
of the « concrete trap door plate » type. If you chose a removable support, it
must be sufficiently heavy to withstand the traction of the fish you will select.
Generally, a 15 kg support will suffice. Make sure the support does not move
on a slippery surface.
Example: concrete on a tiled surface is not recommended, whereas concrete
on a fitted carpet or a rubber surface is a good solution.
Another solution to fix it is
to use a strong Velcro.
For example:
10cm x 20cm can have
100kg resistance.
2. Take the simulator and position it on its base. The latter is equipped with 4
spurs to fix the simulator. Engage the 4 spurs inside the slots of the simulator
and pull the simulator towards you. Once this is done, check that the whole set
is well fixed.
Fix with 4 screws
plus washers
and plugs.

The mat ensures both the navigation through the various menus and also the safety
of the person when fishing. If the person fishing loses his or her balance during the
combat and/or in the event of a technical incident, alighting from the mat stops the
simulation immediately. If the duration of the interruption is less than 2 seconds, the
combat is resumed automatically.
To stop a combat before its end, simply alight from the mat.
In order for the simulator to work, the fishing person must be positioned at the centre
of the mat.

Warning: Before launching the program, remember to release the brake of the
fishing reel. The simulator will start by taking up several metres of fishing line
before starting the combat. As long as this step is not completed, the combat
will not start.
It is also possible that deployment in the water will not start because the line
was not completely rewound during the previous combat. You can then either
proceed to the rewinding or press the “OK” key to directly reset the simulator.

Step 3: End of fight
Depending on whether you are on « fishing sanction » mode and/or « Score » (See
Parameters,) the combat can be ended either on « fish out of water » or on « fish
lost ».
Once the combat ended, the simulator automatically returns to the fish selection
page. You can then start a new combat.
Parameters mode:
This menu allows you to activate:
The fishing sanction: When activated, the simulator will penalise the person
who is too violent with the fish or the line tension.
Score: This function activates the score according to the level selected, the
number of sanctions recorded and the time. Warning, this score takes into
account especially the first 2 parameters, time is a secondary factor.

Length of water deployment: by default the programs have a pre-defined value
for each fish which you will activate in « Auto ». If you wish to modify these
values you can personally select the distance. Warning, the initial values differ
for each fish selected, whereas the manually chosen selection is applied to all
fish. Depending on the fish chosen, too small a value can make the combat
very quick, and not very interesting.
When you have selected your parameters, validate your choice by pressing
the key « OK ».
You can return to this page at any time to modify one or more parameters.
Languages mode:
This page simply allows you to activate the language in which you wish to use the
simulator.

available fish. At the end of these 20 combats, it will ask you to choose 5 fish. By
means of the cursor, select the fish of your choice and validate with the key «OK».
The fish then changes from orange display to green display. As long as the 5 fish
have not been selected and you have not left this page you have the possibility of
changing one or more fish.
The fish displayed in red cannot be selected because they are not available for the
moment.
