| | *[[Big Cheep Cheep]], originally known in English as Boss Bass and [[Big Bertha]]. |
| A '''Boss Bass''' is a huge [[Cheep-Cheep]] found in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They swim on the surface of the water trying to lunge out and eat [[Mario]] when he gets too close. In some of the levels, platforms rise and fall, making Mario an easy target. Throwing blocks and [[fireball]]s can defeat them, but they'll eventually come back. However, in the GBA version, if the player has set on the e-reader card that will make enemies hit by fireballs turn into coins, and the player successfully hits Boss Bass with a fireball and collects the coin, Boss Bass will not return for the rest of the level.
| | *[[Cheep Chomp]], known as Boss Bass in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. |
| | | {{disambig}} |
| The [[Cheep-Chomp]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' has similar qualities to the Boss Bass. Another enemy in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', [[Spike Bass]]es, patrol the surface of water levels, similar to the Boss Bass. However, Spike Basses will not try to eat Mario.

| Boss Basses are also found in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', where they behave much as they do in SMB3. There is also a mid-boss known as [[Bessie Bass]], who, although she behaves like a Boss Bass, is really a [[Big Bertha]], since she is a female of the species.

| Boss Bass apparently eat [[Cheep-Cheep]]s, despite being a relative of it. They also have trouble distinguishing them from something else, as proven in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' when a [[Shayde]] said that he fell into the ocean once, but luckily could swim as well as a Cheep-Cheep. Unfortunately, a Boss Bass thought that since he swam like a Cheep-Cheep, the huge fish ate him.

| Boss Basses are similar in both appearance and behavior to the [[Blurp (Yoshi's Story)|Big Red Blurps]] from ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''.

| |
| A Boss Bass made a small cameo in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', where it jumped out of the water and over the course in [[Banshee Boardwalk]]. This fish replaced the [[Cheep Cheep]] from the original ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' version.

| | |
| The female variety of Boss Bass is [[Big Bertha]].
