Bounty Basses areenemies inDonkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! andDonkey Kong Land III. These plump, red fish are similar toBooty Birds in that they usually carry an item within them. Like many other underwater enemies, a Bounty Bass can be defeated from being stabbed byEnguarde, causing the Bounty Bass to release its item and swim away. A Bounty Bass usually contains abanana or abear coin, although it can sometimes holdK-O-N-G Letters. InDonkey Kong Land III, none of the Bounty Basses have an item contained in them. Most Bounty Basses remain in one position, but some swim around back and forth, which all Bounty Basses do inDonkey Kong Land III. Bounty Basses have a yellow variant namedGleamin' Bream. A photograph of a Bounty Bass appears inDixie Kong's Photo Album, in which it is classified under the category ofAquatic Attackers.

InDonkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, Bounty Basses appear mostly in the underwater levels, such asBazza's Blockade orFloodlit Fish, but appear also in the cavern stage,Pot Hole Panic. InDonkey Kong Land III, Bounty Basses are most commonly encountered in the river stages.

In theremake ofDonkey Kong Country 3, the sound effects for when a Bounty Bass is defeated give the impression of it deflating like a balloon, which also applies to Booty Birds.
