Pragmatic Play · 2022
Big Bass Splash is a 5x3 video slot from Pragmatic Play with 10 fixed paylines and high volatility. Read on for its figures, rounds and bonus modes.
Choose Big Bass Splash if you want a fishing slot with an ocean theme. It runs on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel, and two matching symbols are enough to pay. The symbols include a red off-road 4x4 truck, a fishing reel and rod, a dragonfly, a red tackle box, and the cards A, K, Q, J and 10.
Pick this game for fish that pay in bonus rounds. Fisherman Wild appears on every reel in Free Spins and collects money values, from 2x to 5,000x the total bet, shown on fish symbols. Every fourth Wild collected adds 10 Free Spins and lifts the multiplier to x2, x3, then x10 at level 4. Dynamite, hook and bazooka events change symbols during a round.

Two Phases of Play
Read this when the reels fire up, so you know which phase you are watching.
Three SCATTER symbols start the round. WILD fishermen land on all reels and collect the random MONEY values of 2x to 5000x total bet shown on fish. Each fourth WILD adds 10 Free Spins and lifts the collection multiplier to x2, then x3, then x10.
Scatter landingTen spins plus
Play runs on 5 reels and 3 rows over 10 fixed paylines, with wins paid from the leftmost reel. When exactly two SCATTER appear, a teaser can respin the reels downward or hook one reel up to reveal a third SCATTER.
Bet placedPayouts and teasers
The bonus buy price is 100 times the bet, so at the A$10 top example bet it costs A$1,000 to start the Free Spins directly.

Return to player (RTP) shows how much of every A$100 staked the slot pays back over a long run, not in a single session. The RTP version we run is shown in the game rules.

Round guide
You will have followed one round from the bet to the payout and know where to stop.
Pick a bet between A$0.10 and A$250 before the first spin. The paytable is set at A$2, and the 5x3 grid stays the same at every stake.
Line up at least 2 matching symbols from the leftmost reel along one of the 10 fixed paylines. A run that misses the first reel does not pay.
Watch for a teaser when exactly 2 Scatter symbols land. The Scatter reels drop one position while the rest respin, or a hook lifts a reel to show another Scatter.
Look for the Scatter symbols that start Free Spins. The round then puts the Fisherman Wild on every reel, and he collects the money values shown on fish symbols.
Set your session budget before the first spin, and stop when it runs out. Volatility is high, so one session can differ widely from the next.
Big Bass Splash in play
Spirit Casino shows the game as it plays, so you see each feature before you stake.
Decide before your first spin that the bonus round can come early, late or not at all. Nobody can say how often it lands, because the feature is random. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP printed in the table. The RTP describes an average over very many rounds, not the outcome of your own evening.
Open the game rules before you bet, because they state the RTP version in use. Nothing else on this page confirms which version runs on the site you play. Use the rules as the final word on that point, and read them in full before the first spin.
Treat the top prize as a ceiling the game reaches very rarely, not as a goal to plan around. The ceiling is a multiple of your bet, so a bigger stake lifts the amount in money. Nobody can say when, or whether, a session will get near it.
Only players aged 18+ should play. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or register with BetStop to self-exclude.
Set a budget for Big Bass Splash before you open the game, and treat it as the full amount you may lose.
Pick your stop point before the session starts, and keep to it after a big win as well as after a loss.
Use the deposit and loss limits in your account, and set them before the first session.
Take a break when Big Bass Splash stops being fun, and self-exclude through BetStop if you cannot stop on your own.
Five questions answered
Short answers on versions, free spins, bets, demo access and RTP, before the first spin.
Pick this version for the highest RTP in the series, 96.71 percent. Its maximum win is x5,000 the bet, while Big Bass Splash 1000 reaches x25,000.
Track SCATTER symbols in the base game, where two can set off a near-miss teaser. Free spins are a separate mode with the Fisherman WILD on every reel, collecting money values from fish symbols.
Pick any bet from A$0.10 to A$250 per spin, the highest bet allowed here. The paytable uses A$2, and the example top bet is A$10, so compare payouts at those levels.
Begin at the lowest bet, A$0.10, to see how a round runs before raising the stake. The modes and the paytable on this page cover the rules before the first spin.
Over a long run, Big Bass Splash returns 96.71 percent of stakes, measured on A$100 staked. Other versions in the series return 96.50 to 96.52 percent. RTP is an average across many rounds, so it says nothing about one session.
