Free slot: Fishin' Reels

How Fishin' Reels works

Fishin' Reels is a slot developed and published by the online gaming provider Pragmatic Play. This slot was released in March 2021 and is available at most online casinos. After the release of the successful online game Big Bass Bonanza a few weeks ago, this provider has decided to use the world of fishing again as the main theme for Fishin' Reels! This online game takes us to the deep sea, full of surprises, in the middle of an ocean of turquoise water and exotic seaweed. Fishin' Reels is a classic slot game with 5 reels and 3 symbols. To win, the objective is to make connections with identical symbols on the 10 paylines of this slot. There are also two separate bonuses at Fishin' Reels, and it's up to you to choose which one is best for you.

Fishin' Reels symbols

Many symbols are present on the Fishin' Reels slot machine and it is these that you will have to connect. First, there is a green wild symbol, which substitutes for any other symbol and makes it easy to connect. There is also a golden swordfish, which serves as a scatter, meaning that it gives access to the free spins.

The classic symbols have the lowest value but appear more often. They are represented by the usual suits of a pack of cards, namely clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades.

The premium symbols are more difficult to connect but are the ones with the highest value. They are represented by fish or objects reminiscent of the sea bed, including

• flippers

• diving mask

• starfish

• the crab

• the frog

• Orange Fish
