Gameplay summary
The Elder Judge defines a Fish Function which contains some secret string-matching criteria and also secretly determines The Big One, which is a string that matches the Fish Function.

Successful guesses gain Doubloons, which can be used for other actions. If a Fishing Contestant guesses The Big One, they receive an incrementally-increasing amount of Trophies, and the Fish Function and The Big One are reset to new values.
