During my forum travels I read a post from a woman that swears by the Microgaming Alaskan Fishing slot game. It’s her own personal casino trick when her bankroll is low. This slot game brings her right back. I had to see if the same would work for me. I was never drawn to this slot but I gave it a shot a great online casino, King Neptune’s.

I had £50 and I couldn’t wait to see what I could do. Within three spins I hit the bonus round. This is triggered when the bonus symbol lands on reels 1 and 5. The scene is a man and his god fishing along the side of a peaceful lake. The player is prompted to choose from several different locations in the lake. You win coins based on the size of the fish and you get 5 picks. I find the bonus round to be a little slow. You must wait for the fisherman to reel each pick in. It just seems to run a bit slowly. I like things fast. Anyway, I chose a mixture of medium and small fish for a win of £16.80.

So far, so good. There is also a free spins bonus and amazing stacked wilds. I had high hopes after my good start. Maybe there was something to this woman’s theory about this slot game. Another important aspect is that there are 243 ways to win. I was bound to hit something, right?

One spin included several winning combinations thanks to two stacked wilds. That spin was worth £8.52 followed by an amazing spin and even more winning combos for £64. Needless to say my bankroll was up. I was giving it 10 quid more and then cashing out but I hit the free spins bonus first. The bonus awards 15 free spins with a 2x multiplier. I raked in £16.32 from that. I’ve got to show some appreciation for that tip.

What are games do wonders on your bankroll?
