Seems like a prime candidate now that the Game Boy Color/Advance version articles were split.

In this minigame, [[Donkey Kong]] sits on [[Enguarde]] and fishes off the coast of [[Donkey Kong Island]]. DK's objective is to reel out [[Bitesize]]s and [[Croctopus]]es and then throw them into a wooden rowboat with his fishing rod to gain points. DK advances to the next level when he surpasses a certain amount of points. Each level becomes progressively more difficult.

DK advances to the next level when he surpasses a certain amount of points. Each level becomes progressively more difficult.


Funky's Fishing also features a timer. The minigame ends when it runs out. DK replenishes it by reeling in two or more Croctopus or two or more identically colored Bitesizes (either red, blue, green, yellow or its traditional color). He can also reel every one of them in at once. DK replenishes very little of the timer from reeling in individual Croctopus or Bitesizes. The more underwater foes he simultaneously reels in, the more of the timer he regains.

The minigame also features a "KOMBO" meter; one of the letters highlights red if DK reels in enough identical Bitesizes, though this does not work with Croctopuses. The letters highlight in order. More than one letter highlights if DK captures numerous Bitesizes at a time. When every letter of "KOMBO" is highlighted, DK replenishes a lot of the timer, sometimes all of it, and obtains numerous points.

Black cans and green bottles start to drift underwater by the third level. If DK fishes in this garbage, the minigame timer depletes. More trash fills the ocean as the level difficulty increases.

Funky's Fishing is also playable in Multiplayer, where it is essentially no different. Here both players compete to reach the highest score. Unlike Crosshair Cranky, both players play as DK, meaning that the second player does not play as a blue-capped Diddy.

Funky's Fishing reappeared in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake. It appears in the Adventure mode and the "Extras" menu, where two mini-games are playable from, the other being [[Candy's Dance Studio]]. In the Adventure mode, the mini-game is hosted at [[Funky's Flights]], which itself was renamed to "Funky's Fishing" from the world map. Funky has a unique challenge in each of the six worlds. Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] have the option to jump into the [[Fishing Barrel]] to play the challenge or fly to another world with the [[Jumbo Barrel]]. Each challenge has its own scenery based on the world it is in. Bitesizes can appear in red, blue, green, yellow, and most rarely, their normal gameplay colors. an other aquatic foes such as [[Chomps]], [[Chomps Jr.]], and [[Squidge]]s are also featured alongside Croctopuses and Bitesizes, and all can give kombos.

Unlike the Game Boy Color version, either Kong can ride on Enguarde, based on whoever is the lead Kong, while the other Kong sits in the fishing boat. The lead monkey uses the fishing rod to catch things underwater, depending on what Funky requests. Using the D-Pad, the player can lower and raise the hook, wait for enemies to pass by, and reel one/them into the boat. There is a time bar which slowly decreases over time. By hauling in more than two fish at a time, a "Kombo" bonus is added along with extra time and bonus points, depending on how big the combo was. Hauling in something that Funky did not request lowers the time bar.

If the player gets enough points, they can enter their initials on the hi-score dashboard, which displays the top five results. The scoreboard can also be viewed from the selection menu's "HI-SCORE" option, under "BONUS". Before the player sets a high score, the dashboard shows the top five score, all of which appear from each five Kongs (judging from their initials). Funky appears to have the highest score, while [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] has the lowest.
