There is no wild symbol in the base game at all. During free spins, the Fisherman substitutes for all regular pay symbols (except the Scatter) to complete winning paylines, and simultaneously acts as the collect icon that reels in Fish Money symbol values whenever he lands. Two or more Fisherman Wilds on the same payline also form their own paying combination.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\"\u003eFishing Boat Scatter\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Scatter symbol is depicted as a Fishing Boat sailing across the reels. Landing three or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels triggers the Free Spins Bonus round, with the total number of free spins scaling with the Scatter count on the trigger.

They come in seven different fish sizes, with multipliers of 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x and 50x. Fish Money symbols only pay out when the Fisherman Wild lands during free spins, at which point every fish visible on the reels is collected and its value added to your total winnings.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFishin' Frenzy Bonus Features\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Free Spins Bonus is where Fishin' Frenzy at BetVictor comes alive.

Multiple Fisherman Wilds can appear on a single spin, and each one collects the visible Fish Money values independently. If three Fishermen land at the same time as five Fish Money symbols, all five fish values are collected three separate times, dramatically multiplying the payout for that spin.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the mechanic that Reel Time Gaming pioneered in 2014, and it has since gone on to become one of the most-copied bonus features in the entire slots industry, directly inspiring the Big Bass Bonanza franchise from Reel Kingdom and Pragmatic Play among many others.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\"\u003eNo Free Spins Retrigger\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike some later variants in the Fishin' Frenzy franchise, the original Fishin' Frenzy Free Spins Bonus round cannot be retriggered. Scatter symbols do not land during free spins, so once your initial 10, 15 or 20 free spins have been used, the bonus round ends and gameplay returns to the base game. Later titles including Fishin' Frenzy The Big Catch introduced retrigger mechanics through the Fisherman collection meter, but the original stays true to a single-round bonus format.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"toc_title":"Similar Games","title":"\u003ch2 class=\"bvs-h2\"\u003eSimilar Games at BetVictor\u003c/h2\u003e","content":"\u003cp\u003eIf Fishin' Frenzy has clicked with you and you want to explore more fishing-themed slots or Fisherman-and-collect mechanics at BetVictor, the following titles are worth a look:\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/casino/games/1011358-big-bass-bonanza\"\u003eBig Bass Bonanza\u003c/a\u003e: The Pragmatic Play / Reel Kingdom fishing slot that took direct inspiration from Fishin' Frenzy and has since spawned a 17+ title franchise of its own.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/casino/games/2000087-big-bass-splash\"\u003eBig Bass Splash\u003c/a\u003e: The Western-themed variant of Big Bass Bonanza with additional pre-bonus modifiers.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/casino/games/1008105-the-goonies\"\u003eThe Goonies\u003c/a\u003e: The Blueprint Gaming licensed slot based on the classic 1985 film with progressive jackpot access via Jackpot King.\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https://www.betvictor.com/en-gb/casino/games/1008110-eye-of-horus-megaways\"\u003eEye of Horus Megaways\u003c/a\u003e: The Blueprint Gaming Egyptian-themed slot with expanding Horus wilds during free spins.\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse the full range in the BetVictor Slots lobby, or check the New Releases page for the latest additions from Blueprint Gaming, Reel Time Gaming, Pragmatic Play and other leading providers.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"toc_title":"BetVictor Verdict","title":"\u003ch2 class=\"bvs-h2\"\u003eBetVictor Verdict on Fishin' Frenzy\u0026nbsp;\u003c/h2\u003e","content":"\u003cp\u003eFishin' Frenzy is one of the most enduring slots ever released and the game that effectively launched the entire Fisherman-and-collect subgenre.

The Fish Money symbols create genuine tension every time the Fisherman lands. The 10-payline setup keeps sessions accessible and easy to follow.
