Before your first spin, you'll need to configure your bet. Fishin' Frenzy gives you two ways to do this. The simplest method is clicking the TOTAL BET button (look for the stack of coins icon on the right sidebar), which opens a menu where you can select from preset stake options. Alternatively, if you want more granular control, you can use the bet menu to set both the number of active win lines (1-10) and your bet per line separately—your total stake is then lines multiplied by bet per line.

Once your bet's sorted, hit the SPIN button (circular arrow) to start the reels. They'll spin and stop automatically from left to right. If you're impatient, you can speed things up: while the reels are spinning, the spin button changes to a fast forward icon—press it to stop the reels immediately rather than waiting for them to finish their animation.

The payline indicators run down both sides of the reels, numbered 1-10 in various colours. These aren't just decorative—they show which lines are active and help you track winning combinations. Active lines light up; inactive ones grey out. The coloured lines overlay the reels themselves, so you can see exactly where each payline runs.

Autoplay is available through the circular arrows button. This opens a menu where you'll select how many automatic spins you want. Once activated, the button displays your remaining autoplay spins. The system's fairly intelligent about stopping itself: it'll automatically pause when you trigger the Free Spins Bonus, if you hit a set loss limit, or if you win a progressive pot (where applicable). You can also manually interrupt autoplay with the STOP button (square icon)—pressing spin again resumes where you left off.

During autoplay, the game handles everything according to your initial bet settings. You don't need to adjust anything between spins unless you want to change your stake or stop the sequence.

One practical note: the reels always stop in sequence from left to right, which means you'll see whether you're building a winning combination before the final reel lands. This is standard behaviour—there's no way to change the stop order, but the fast forward option during manual spins gives you control over the pacing if you want quicker results.

The interface is straightforward once you've located these core controls: bet menu (coins), spin (circular arrow), and autoplay (double arrows). Everything else happens automatically based on the symbols that land.
