Fishin' Frenzy Even Bigger Catch Slot Review

The Fishin' Frenzy Even Bigger Catch slot is a Blueprint Gaming game from February 2023: five reels, three rows, ten fixed paylines and medium-high volatility. Its RTP is 95% in the standard version, with a 93% version also in circulation, so the figure on your casino's paytable matters more than usual.

The game sits in the long Fishin' Frenzy series. If you know the original Fishin' Frenzy, the bones are familiar: fish carry cash values, and the fisherman collects them during free spins. What this edition adds is a second, gold-coloured wild and a few more spins on the hook.

• Fisherman Wild: collects the fish values on screen, each worth 2x to 50x the stake.

• Upgrades: every four Fisherman Wilds raise the fish values and add five spins.
• Buy Feature: priced at 180x the stake where the casino and its regulator allow it.

A worked example

Take a EUR 0.50 stake. A fish showing 10x is worth EUR 5 when the fisherman lands. If a 3x multiplier from the Gold Wild's pick applies to that collection, it is worth EUR 15; the paytable sets out exactly when the multiplier counts. The same arithmetic applies on the way down: most spins carry no fish worth collecting, and medium-high volatility means long quiet spells between rounds.

RTP: 95% or 93%

Two percentage points sounds like nothing. Over EUR 500 of total stakes it is a theoretical EUR 25 kept by the house at 95% against EUR 35 at 93%. Casinos choose which version to load, and few advertise it. Open the game's info screen before the first spin; if it reads 93%, there are other fishing slots with better published settings, and our high RTP slots page lists some.

10,000x or 50,000x: the open question

SlotCatalog and one major review site give 10,000x. Another long-running guide to the series gives 50,000x. We have not been able to settle it from the studio, so the cell stays empty rather than carrying a guess.

Demo, free play and the 180x buy

We found no studio demo for this edition. Play-money versions in casino lobbies use the same rules and pay nothing, which makes them useful for seeing how often the Gold Wild turns up. The Buy Feature skips the base game for 180 times your stake: EUR 90 on a 50 cent spin. It is not offered in every market, and its availability depends on the casino's licence. A free spins offer tied to this game is a cheaper way to see the bonus, provided the wagering is light; our free spins page shows what to check.

Irish players and the licence gap

Any site offering Even Bigger Catch to Irish customers holds a foreign licence, because the GRAI has not yet issued gaming licences and expects to begin in early 2027. The regulator named in the casino's footer, often Malta or Great Britain, is the one that handles disputes. 18+ only. A spending limit set in advance does more than any feature; see our responsible gambling page.
