600 job Mermaid Fishing — Aim Your Cannon and Win Big
Experience the hunt deep in the ocean, in the realm of mermaids. Mermaid Fishing is an arcade fishing game at 600 job where choosing the right cannon and shooting at the right targets gives you the chance to win big rewards.
How a Fishing Arcade Game Works
Cost per shot
In Mermaid Fishing you control a cannon. The higher the cannon level, the more each shot costs — but the reward for catching each fish rises proportionally. A lower level lets you play longer; a higher level gives you a faster shot at bigger rewards.
The difference between small and large fish
Small colourful fish die easily but pay little. Medium fish — such as large sea turtles, rays, or sharks — take more shots to catch but pay much more. The screen is full of fish at once, so it takes experience to judge which target is worth your time.
What makes special boss fish different
At set intervals, a massive boss character appears on screen — in Mermaid Fishing these can be a mermaid queen or a monster octopus. They require many more shots to defeat, but the reward on success is several times greater than for ordinary fish. In a group room, attacking together brings the boss down faster.
Special shots and skills
In Mermaid Fishing, special shots unlock alongside regular ones. A laser beam can hit multiple fish in a straight line. An explosive shell deals damage to a group of nearby fish at once. Using these special weapons at the right moment gives better results relative to their cost.
Mermaid Bonus Event
A special bonus event activates during the game — mermaids spread across the screen and catching as many as possible within the time limit earns multiplier rewards. This is the best opportunity to earn the most points, so when a bonus event starts it pays to stay focused.
Chance at a mega jackpot
Catching certain rare fish or mermaids can trigger a jackpot. Contributions from many players build up in the jackpot pool, so the mega jackpot can reach a very large amount. It triggers randomly, but playing at higher cannon levels increases your chances.
Choose the Right Cannon Level for Your Budget
The biggest mistake new players make in Mermaid Fishing is choosing too high a cannon level from the start. If you have ৳500 and each shot costs ৳10, you only have 50 shots. One small mistake with that budget and you have nothing left to play with.
Start with a lower cannon level. Get a feel for the screen's rhythm, watch which fish come from which direction, learn when special events happen — then raise the cannon level gradually. Playing for longer increases your chances of encountering bonus events and boss characters, which is far more effective than pushing the level up quickly and burning through your balance.
Experienced players often hold a mid-range cannon level and wait for boss targets. This approach requires some patience, but it is the most effective way to keep your balance healthy over the long run.
Play Alone or in a Shared Room?
Mermaid Fishing typically offers two options: a solo room and a shared room. In a solo room you play alone, so all the fish are only your cannon's targets. There is no competition, and you set your own pace.
In a shared room, multiple players play on the same screen. Boss targets can be attacked together, so large fish go down faster and rewards come quicker. The downside is that another player may kill a fish you were targeting before you finish it, meaning your shots are wasted.
Beginners benefit from starting in a solo room to get comfortable with the game's pace. Once you have some experience, joining a shared room during boss events gives you a better shot at big rewards. 600 job's other arcade games such as Captain's Bounty use the same type of room system.
Target Selection and Timing Strategy
-
Use the screen corners
Fish typically enter from one corner of the screen and exit through another. Aiming near the corner slows the fish's movement relative to your view, giving you a better chance of hitting it with fewer shots. -
Shoot at groups of fish
When many small fish appear on screen together, using an explosive shell or area weapon can take out several at once. At those moments it is better not to waste time on a single large target. -
Anticipate the fish's path
Large fish move slowly and their path can be read a little ahead of time. Shoot at the point where the fish is heading, not where it is right now — this is called a "lead shot". Shooting directly at the fish's current position usually results in a miss. -
Save special shots for boss appearances
Opportunities to use special shots or skills are limited. Do not spend them on ordinary fish — saving them for a boss target or the Mermaid bonus event is far more effective. -
Focus on half-damaged fish
If a fish has already been partly damaged by another player or your earlier shots, one or two more shots can finish it off for a reward at low cost. Do not let these opportunities pass. -
Lower your cannon if your balance drops
If your balance falls sharply mid-game, reduce your cannon level immediately. Sticking to a high cannon and burning through your balance fast is the most common mistake new players make.
Pro Tips
When a mermaid character appears on screen, concentrate all your cannon power on it as quickly as possible — ordinary fish can wait, but the Mermaid bonus is limited in time.
Shared rooms tend to have more players at night or during busy hours, so bosses go down faster. Being in the room at the right time makes it easier to secure a share of the boss reward.
The game's graphics and sound effects are enjoyable but can be distracting. Make it a habit to check the list at the top of the screen to see which fish are worth the most.
These Mistakes Will Drain Your Balance Fast
The biggest mistake nearly everyone makes when playing Mermaid Fishing is choosing the highest cannon level right at the start. The excitement makes it feel like more shots means more fish. In practice, a high cannon drains your balance so quickly that the game ends before a boss event or Mermaid bonus ever appears.
The second common mistake is treating every fish as equally important. Trying to catch every fish on screen means none get finished properly — lots of shots are spent but few rewards come in. It is better to fix on one target and see it through.
The third mistake is pushing the cannon level even higher after a win. Winning a little brings the temptation to go for more. At that point, keeping the cannon at a mid-level and playing steadily is the smarter move. Just like Slots, a long-term approach holds up better in fishing games too.
Fishing Games vs Slot Games
Many people assume fishing arcade games and slot games are the same. There are actually several fundamental differences between the two.
| Feature | Mermaid Fishing | Slot Games |
|---|---|---|
| Control | The player aims the cannon and selects targets themselves | Pressing the spin button determines the result automatically |
| Gameplay Speed | Real-time action, multiple targets on screen at once | Each spin is separate, with a pause between results |
| Decision-Making | Every moment requires a decision — which fish to shoot, what cannon level to use | Set the bet amount and spin — the result depends on RNG |
| Team Play | In a shared room, multiple players can attack a boss together | A solo experience — no interaction with other players |
| Special Features | Boss targets, special shots, Mermaid bonus event | Free spins, bonus rounds, multipliers, Megaways |
| Learning Curve | Some practice needed — reading paths and managing the cannon | Can start immediately, rules are simple |
Both types of games are available at 600 job. For more on slots, see the 600 job Slots guide.
