Awesome, he gave it a go last video, unfortunately he didn’t hit a golden guy, which shouldn’t even be that rare! Gotta say I still consider it the best version. The added bet isn’t necessary, it’s only if you wanna have a higher chance per spin to win the bonus. My guess is it’s pretty even doing it or not, however might take longer without though.
The golden guy can land just as a normal fisherman, and he gets the multiplier as well, had fish for approximately 60 pounds, doubled it, with a 0.40 p bet.
