Captain Fisher at 399bet 2 — a complete guide to hunting rewards in the deep sea
From choosing your cannon to hunting boss targets — this page covers winning strategies in Captain Fisher, how to plan your budget, and how to avoid common mistakes.
How a fish-shooting game works
Captain Fisher is an arcade-style shooting game where various sea creatures swim across the screen. Players use a cannon to shoot at these targets. Each shot has a fixed cost — the higher the cannon level, the more each shot costs, and the larger the reward for hitting a target.
The game features targets ranging from small fish to large sharks, octopuses, and special boss creatures. Small targets are easier to kill but give smaller rewards; large and boss targets may require many shots, but taking them down pays out much more. Boss targets typically stay on screen for a limited time, and spending extra shots on them can activate a multiplier reward.
Each round also includes special bonus features — such as a lightning shot that hits multiple targets at once, a spinning bomb that covers an area of the screen, and occasionally a special jackpot fish that pays out a large reward when caught. Understanding how these mechanics work makes it much easier to decide how to spend your budget.
Choosing the right cannon level for your budget
Picking the wrong cannon level can drain your balance very quickly. Use the comparison below to find the level that suits you.
For new players
Start with the lowest or a mid-range cannon level. The cost per shot stays low, you can play for a long time, and you have room to learn the game's patterns. It is best never to spend more than 20% of your balance in a single session.
Low RiskMid-budget players
At a mid-range cannon level you can shoot at small and medium fish while occasionally targeting larger ones. When a boss target appears, you can try a few shots, but it is generally better not to overspend and to wait for the next boss instead.
Medium RiskExperienced players
At a high cannon level the focus shifts to large bosses and special targets. Each shot costs significantly more, so you need a sufficient balance to play for an extended time. Rather than jumping straight to a high level, it is better to move up gradually.
High RiskKey tip: The right cannon level for you is the one that lets you play continuously for 30 minutes. If your balance runs out in 10 minutes, lower the cannon level. The same principle applies to any casino game on 399bet 2.
Solo play vs. playing in a shared room
Captain Fisher, like most arcade fishing games, offers two types of rooms — solo and multiplayer shared rooms. There are a few important differences between them that affect your playing experience and potential rewards.
Solo play: Only your cannon is on screen. Since you are the only player, every target on screen is yours. However, boss targets appear less frequently in this room and reward rates may differ slightly.
Shared room: Multiple players shoot on the same screen. Boss targets appear more frequently, but with many players shooting at once there is competition for the credit of killing any given target. Team bonus events are more common in shared rooms. New players who learn the game in a solo room first will find it easier to do well when they move to a shared room.
Remember, in a shared room you do not receive a reward for a fish killed by another player's shot — you only get the reward if your shot is the one that kills it. Understanding this rule goes a long way toward controlling your shot spending.
Target selection and strategies for shooting at the right time
A large part of skill in Captain Fisher is deciding which targets to shoot at and how many shots to spend on each. This depends on the target's size, movement path, and how long it stays on screen.
-
Avoid targets entering from the corners of the screen — they exit quickly and there is a high chance of wasting shots. Focus on targets near the centre of the screen.
-
Prioritise slow-moving targets — large fish or turtle-like creatures that move slowly stay on screen longer, so there is less risk of wasting shots.
-
Build up your balance before a boss appears — the game generally follows a cycle where a boss appears at regular intervals. Shooting less at small targets and waiting for the boss gives you a better chance at a large reward.
-
Use lightning shots or bombs at the right moment — these special shots are most effective when many fish are on screen at the same time, or when a boss target is already weakened.
-
Do not keep firing at the same target indefinitely — if a target has not been killed after several shots, let it go. Some large fish are designed to survive without a large number of shots.
-
Anticipate the fish's path — when shooting, aim not at where the fish currently is but at where it is heading. This increases your hit rate.
Special features and bonus rounds
Captain Fisher has several special features that set it apart from a standard fishing game:
- Captain Boss: A special boss that appears periodically and carries multiple multiplier rewards.
- Gem Collection: Killing certain fish drops gems that you can accumulate to trigger a bonus game.
- Mine Shot: Placing a special mine damages fish that pass over it afterward.
- Dragon Reward: Killing the dragon triggers a large reward event across the entire screen.
- Free Shot Bonus: During certain special events, a number of free shots are awarded.
Common mistakes players make and how to avoid them
Many players repeat the same mistakes early on in Captain Fisher, which drains their balance quickly. Recognising these mistakes helps your budget last much longer.
Using a high cannon level with a small balance can wipe everything out in just a few minutes. Set your cannon level according to your actual balance.
Firing too many shots trying to kill one large fish can cost more than the reward is worth. If it is not dead after 5–7 shots, move on.
Spending a lightning bomb when only one or two fish are on screen is wasteful. Save special shots for when a group of fish or a boss appears.
Wasting shots trying to finish off a fish that another player has already weakened is not worthwhile. Look for a fresh target of your own.
The difference between fishing games and slots
Many players think slots and fishing games are the same type of game, but their structure and the role of skill are completely different.
| Feature | Captain Fisher (fishing game) | Slot games |
|---|---|---|
| Control | The player actively selects targets and fires | The outcome is determined as soon as the spin button is pressed |
| Role of skill | Skill applies to target selection, timing, and bonus management | Outcomes are entirely RNG-based; skill has no direct influence |
| Budget management | Each shot has its own cost; cannon level can be changed | A fixed bet per spin; the number of lines or bet amount can be adjusted |
| Game pace | Slow or fast depending on the player's preference | Moves very quickly when auto-spin is on |
| How bonuses are earned | By killing special targets or collecting gems | Through scatter symbols or specific symbol combinations |
| Social element | Multiple players can play in the same room | Typically a solo experience |
As with slots, there is no way to guarantee the full outcome in Captain Fisher, because the reward value of each target and how much you get for killing it are determined randomly. However, the opportunity to make active decisions gives fishing games a different feel. Players who are used to slot games often find that fishing games require a different kind of focus.
