Game won't run for me even when using RUNME.EXE.

It keeps on asking me to insert Disc 1 for EGA, Disc 2 for CGA and Disc 3 for VGA. What to do?

You should:
1) Download the Big_Game_Fishing.zip
2) Extract (unzip) the file and move the folder that it creates to C:
3) Download DOSBox.
4) Install DOSBox.
5) Run DOSBox.
6) Type:
a - MOUNT C: C:\ <press enter>
b - C: <press enter>
c - RUNME <press enter>

Now the game should start!

Followed all your steps, but I just get some kind of screensaver and then it exits to dos mode again...

It's not just the info screen? At the bottom line it says "Press any key to continue"???

It's not a good idea to mount to c:\. Create a new folder like "oldgames" and move the game folder there (you'll have c:\oldgames\BGF). And it's even better to use your user folder (especially if you have Vista).
The mount line would be mount C C:\oldgames
c:
cd bgf
runme

And you can add the bold lines to your dosbox.conf file under this text:
[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.

Then you don't have to write that mount line everytime you start dosbox.

Copy protection.
Get the manual.
Find the correct page, row and word and enter that.

You should be happy that telephone booths don't display that. The phone books are always missing pages, or even themselves.
