Fishing Cash Pots slot review
Fishing Cash Pots is an Inspired slot launched in April 2021, and it shares its Cash Pots name with studio titles such as Rainbow Cash Pots. The game runs on five reels and three rows with 10 paylines, and nearly everything revolves around one round: the Fisherman Bonus, where cash-value fish lock into place while the rest of the grid respins.

How Fishing Cash Pots plays
Wins pay across 10 lines, with an angling scene behind the reels. Two special symbols matter most:
- Fish: each carries a cash amount linked to your stake and can land anywhere on reels one to four.
- The Fisherman: he appears only on reel five, and he turns a screen of fish into a bonus.
Because the angler sits on the last reel, you can watch a bonus forming as the reels stop from left to right.
The Fisherman Bonus
Land six or more fish on reels one to four in the same spin as a Fisherman on reel five, and the bonus begins. The triggering fish stay held while every other position spins again for five respins. New fish join the catch. When the respins end, the values of all the fish on show are paid.
Inspired’s launch notes add that up to three fishermen can be gathered in the round, which can triple the bonus total. Unlike Fishin’ Frenzy, where a fisherman wild collects fish in free spins, this is a held-symbol round with a fixed respin count.
