Reel Fishing (known as Fish Eyes in Japan) is the first in the Reel Fishing series of fishing video games. It was released on the PlayStation in 1996. It was published by Natsume.

When hooking a fish, the player must wait until its mouth has completely covered the hook, then hit the reel button to set the hook. Once the hook is set, the player can reel it in. If the player reels when the fish is resisting, there is a greater chance of the line snapping and of the player losing the fish. When the fish is speeding away and then slows, the fish has a lesser chance of resisting.

One a fish is caught, the player can put it into their personal aquarium, in which the fish can be fed and raised.
