Pragmatic Play · 2022
Big Bass Splash is a high volatility 5x3 video slot from Pragmatic Play with 10 fixed paylines, and this page covers its figures and bonus rounds.
Demo is free. The real game needs an account and you must be 18+.
A 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines, themed on fishing and the ocean, forms the base of this video slot. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel, and a line pays with as few as 2 matching symbols. When exactly 2 Scatter symbols land, the base game shows a teaser, such as scatter reels dropping one position or a hook lifting a reel to reveal another Scatter.
Every 4th Wild collected adds 10 Free Spins and raises the collection multiplier up to x10 at level 4. In the Free Spins mode the Wild Fisherman appears on all reels and collects the random money values shown on fish symbols, from 2x to 5,000x the total bet. Random in-round events include a dynamite spin, a hook and a bazooka.

Five moves, start to end
Westpoint Casino explains each step of a round before you stake real money.
A$0.10 to A$250 is the full bet range, and each spin uses the stake you set before pressing spin.
10 fixed paylines pay wins left to right, starting from the leftmost reel of the 5x3 grid. Two matching symbols can already pay.
Exactly 2 SCATTER symbols start a near-miss teaser. Either a random respin-down drops the scatter reels one position while the others respin, or a hook lifts a reel to show another SCATTER.
2x to 5000x the total bet is the range of MONEY values on fish. Free Spins open from the base game's SCATTER symbols, and WILD Fisherman then appears on all reels.
A$250 is the highest bet, so set a budget and bet size before the first spin. Stop when the budget runs out, or call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.
Bonus rules
The usual worry: not knowing what the bonus changes once it starts.
A WILD Fisherman appears on all reels and collects random money values from 2x-5000x the total bet, shown on fish symbols. Every 4th WILD collected retriggers +10 Free Spins and lifts the collection multiplier: level 2 is x2, level 3 is x3, level 4 is x10, top level.
Base game spinsCollected money
Play runs on 5 reels x 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines, paying left to right from the leftmost reel. With exactly 2 Scatter symbols landed, a near-miss teaser follows: scatter reels randomly drop one position while others respin, or a hook lifts a reel to reveal another Scatter.
Standard spinsLine wins
Ten fixed paylines run across the 5x3 grid, yet nobody can tell in advance how often the Free Spins will come. The timing of the bonus round is random, and so is the result of one session, whatever the RTP. The RTP of 96.71 is a long-run figure, so it does not promise any result on the next spin or in the next session.
96.71 is the one RTP listed for Big Bass Splash, but which version runs on Westpoint Casino is shown only in the game rules. Open the game rules before the first spin to read which version is in play.
5,000 times the bet is the ceiling of Big Bass Splash, and it is reached very rarely. Because the ceiling is a multiple of the stake, a bigger bet raises the money paid at the top while the multiple stays the same. Count the maximum win as a rare outcome, nothing you can plan on.
Know before spinning
You will know how free spins start, what bets fit you and what RTP means.
2 Scatter symbols landing in the base game lead to a near-miss teaser. Either the scatter reels move one position down while the rest respin, or a hook lifts a reel to reveal another Scatter. Free Spins use the Fisherman Wild, which collects money from fish.
96.71 per cent is the RTP of this version, the long-run share of stakes returned to players. The other versions in the series run at 96.50 to 96.52 per cent. Long-run averages cannot predict any single session.
10 fixed paylines sit on a high volatility profile, so wins can be less frequent but larger when they land. Hit frequency is not known in advance, so a dry spell says nothing about the next spin. Expect long gaps between wins.
x5,000 is the top multiple of the bet, which is A$5,000 at the A$1 example top bet. At the A$250 maximum bet the same multiple reaches A$1,250,000. A maximum win is a ceiling, not a promised payout.
A$0.10 is the lowest bet and A$250 the highest, so the range is wide. The paytable is calculated at A$0.20 per spin, and money prizes grow with the stake you choose. Set your stake before the first spin.
5 reels and 3 rows run 10 fixed paylines, so the layout is clear before any stake. The smallest bet is A$0.10, so a first session can start small. Read how each mode runs before the first spin.
18+ only. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and you can register with BetStop to self-exclude.
A$250 is the highest bet allowed, so a fixed budget matters at every stake. Write the total down before your first spin.
A$1 is the example top bet, and a winning run at any stake is no reason to keep playing. Decide your stop point before the first spin.
A$0.20 is the paytable stake, and a session at that bet is easy to measure. Set deposit and loss limits in your account before you start.
A$0.10 spins look small, but a long session at any stake adds up. When the game stops being fun, take a pause or self-exclude.
