Simply connect power, plug in your HDMI display, attach your fishing line, and you’re ready to fish — indoors.
The simulator connects to any HDMI-compatible display including televisions, monitors, or projectors, allowing you to create anything from a compact setup to a full-scale big-screen fishing experience.
All fish species games are supplied pre-loaded on a USB drive that plugs directly into the simulator.
Weight: 12kg
Dimensions,: 400mm x 200mm high.
GAME MENU

IDF-M3 – Precision and Realistic Fighting Performance
The IDF-M3 delivers smooth, responsive drag performance comparable to the previous high-performance model.Specifications
- Low-speed drag: 5–7 lb (2–3 kg)
- High-speed drag: 7–10 lb (3–5 kg)
- Equivalent power to previous IDF-M2-HP model (approximate depending on fish species)
- Powered by a 24V DC 250W motor
Price: AUD $2695.00
IDF-M3-HP – Built for Serious Power and Big Game Action
Designed for users wanting maximum drag performance and enhanced durability, the HP model delivers significantly increased pulling power.
Specifications
- Low-speed drag: 5–7 lb (2–3 kg)
- High-power drag: 10–15 lb (5–7 kg) (approximate depending on fish species)
- Powered by a 24V DC 350W motor
- Upgraded drive board
- Integrated cooling fans
- Includes Sim Anchor and suction cup feet for maximum stability
Price: AUD $2995.00
(Same price as the previous IDF-M2-HP model) You can download the new 2026 Manual HERE
New High-Performance Motor Technology
Both models utilise the new MY-1016 24V motor platform (250W or 350W depending on model). These motors are widely used in high-performance electric bikes and scooters and provide:
✔ Increased torque
✔ Faster reaction times
✔ Greater reliability under load
Future Upgrade Flexibility
If you purchase the IDF-M3 and later decide you want additional drag performance, upgrading to the HP specification is simple.
Upgrade Cost: AUD $500 + return shipping (international customers)
Upgrade shipping is free within Australia.
The simulator must be returned to our workshop to complete the upgrade.

Enhanced Stability for High-Power Fishing

Testing of the new HP model revealed dramatically increased drag power during large game simulations. To ensure stability during extreme fighting loads, we have developed a Sim Anchor which can carry approx 10kg Sand to add extra weight to the Simulator. You can find the listing for the SIM ANCHOR HERE
If needed this prevents simulator movement even during aggressive high-drag game play.
Global Voltage Compatibility
Both models can be configured for either 115V or 220V operation prior to dispatch, ensuring compatibility with international power systems.

Designed for Realism. Built for Performance. Ready to Fish.
The IDF-M3 range represents a major step forward in fishing simulator technology — delivering greater power, faster response, and unmatched realism for anglers, training facilities, and entertainment venues.
SNEAK PEAK OF FOOTAGE SEEN IN THE SIMULATOR GAMES
The Indoor Fishing Simulator is far more than a toy, designed to train and perfect fishing endurance and technique. Now is your chance to try it out and feel the realistic sensation for yourself. The only difference between this and the real thing is you won’t get wet.
Watch the fight play out in front of you on the screen and experience a realistic fishing simulation.
High and low drag setting for novice to the experienced fisherpersons.
Teach kids correct fishing technique or flick it to high and take on your friends in a competition.
The score is recording during the simulations from the LED display… the highest score wins.
Can you lose a fish? Yes the IDF-M2HP has a line break function just as in the real thing if you give it to much tension on the reel you can pull the hook.
Can be used with any TV monitor or rear projector screen. You will need at least 3m from tip of your rod to the spool on the IDF-M2HP unit.
We suggest using an overhead reel to prevent line twist. Spin reels can be used but will develop line twist over time.
Keep consistent tension, don’t wind when the fish runs, and get line back when it slows and changes direction, just like real fishing.
You will not believe how realistic this is!
The Indoor Fishing Simulators are covered by a full 12 month factory warranty.
To submit a warranty claim it is the customers responsibility to return the Simulator Box to Rig Master Tackle in Victoria Australia to be assessed. If found to have a manufacture fault, return shipping to customer will be covered under Warranty.
