(More customer reviews)I purchased Bubba the Bottom Feeder game after reading the instructions on the back of the box. I grew up playing all kinds of cheap pool games in my grandma's pool, and most of them are some type of ring toss game, or have you dive for certain items that are scattered across the bottom while your siblings desperately try to stop you from getting that last one.
Bubba the Bottom Feeder was a bit different- it's set up like a -reverse- dive game. "Bubba" is a big fish with big green weighted lips who sinks to the bottom of the pool. (His lips are also hinged, making a nice carrying case for the other parts of the game!) His body is made of a mesh net, probably for safety reasons- and so everything can dry quickly when the game is over. The game also comes with several adorable little round plastic fish, each one weighted slightly different and about the size of a ping pong ball. Most float on the surface, while some sink slightly below.
The object is then to gather these little fish, one at a time, and "feed" them to Bubba, resting on the bottom. Each fish he is fed causes him to get a little lighter-- until finally he eats "too much" and floats to the surface, and the game can start again. The person to feed him the fish that makes him float- wins. (I think.)
It's by no means hours of fun, but it is a nice spin on dive games, and the concept of feeding a big fish was well thought out (it would be much less fun putting ping pong balls in an underwater net, for example)
The construction is pretty good for an inexpensive pool game as well- I only worry about Bubba's hinged lips breaking where the plastic gets fairly thin. Overall though this is a great little summer pool toy for the price, has a nice sense of humor (maybe teaches kids not to overfeed pet fish?) and is quite fun for kids.

Feed Bubba fish until he floats! Bubba the Bottom Feeder is a unique underwater game that can be played in the shallow or deep end of the pool. Players take turns feeding Bubba fish and the first one to make Bubba float to the surface wins! The fish are weighted differently so no game is ever the same. Includes bubba and eight gold fish.
