Spins land symbols on a 5x3 grid, and wins run along 10 fixed paylines, paying from the leftmost reel to the right. Two matching symbols from the left are enough to pay. The fishing and ocean theme shows in symbols such as a red off-road truck, a dragonfly and a red tackle box. Scatter symbols add near-miss teasers in the base game when exactly two of them land.
On the reels of the Free Spins round, Fisherman Wild symbols appear on every reel and collect money values shown on fish, from 2x to 5000x the total bet. Every fourth Wild collected adds 10 free spins and raises the collection multiplier, up to level four.
Play walkthrough
By the end you will know how a round runs from bet to payout.
The reels stay still until you set a bet between A$0.10 and A$250. Fish money values in free spins are multiples of that bet, so the stake sets the sums.
Symbols land across 5 reels and 3 rows. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel on 10 fixed paylines, and two matching symbols can pay.
When exactly 2 SCATTER land, the reels tease a third at random. Scatter reels drop one position while the rest respin, or a hook lifts a reel to show another SCATTER.
Fisherman WILD symbols appear on every reel in free spins. They collect the random MONEY values shown on fish, from 2x to 5000x the total bet.
Each spin turns the reels, so set your limit before the first one lands. If play stops feeling fun, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.
The Free Spins buy costs 100 times the bet, so at the A$5 example top bet it comes to A$500.

The usual worry is not knowing how the free spins look on screen.
Extra spins, plainly
Useful when a bonus feature appears, or when you want the rules of each round in advance.
In free spins, the WILD Fisherman appears on all reels and collects the random MONEY values (2x-5000x total bet) shown on fish symbols. Every 4th WILD collected adds +10 Free Spins and raises the collection multiplier: level 2 is x2, level 3 is x3 and level 4 is x10.
Base Game spinsCollected MONEY values
Base game runs on 5 reels x 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines, paying left to right from the leftmost reel. When exactly 2 SCATTER land, teasers may follow: scatter reels drop one position while the rest respin, or a hook pulls a reel up to reveal another SCATTER.
Placing a bet10 fixed paylines
The bonus round arrives at random on the reels, so how often it comes cannot be known in advance. The result of one session is random too, whatever the RTP. The RTP describes the long run across a very large number of rounds, not the outcome of the next hour.
Each spin on the reels runs at the RTP version the lobby carries, and that version is shown only in the game rules. Two versions of this game can pay back differently over the long run, so the rules are the place to check.
A spin on the reels reaches the largest possible win only very rarely, and that ceiling is a fixed multiple of the bet. Hitting it is not something any session can plan for. A big win on one spin says nothing about the next, and the ceiling is not a target to aim for.
Quick replies
At Casiny we answer each question with the game's own figures and nothing guessed.
Big Bass Splash runs on high volatility. Wins can be large but arrive less often, and the timing of the bonus cannot be known before you play.
The maximum win of Big Bass Splash is x5,000 the total bet. The cash amount grows with your stake, so the same multiple means more money at a higher bet, up to the highest bet allowed here.
This page explains Big Bass Splash before any stake, with its modes, bet range and paytable. Read the Base Game and Free Spins rules first, then pick a bet within the range from A$0.10 to A$250.
Free spins start from the Scatter symbol in the Base Game. When exactly 2 Scatters land the teaser may add one more by a respin-down or a hook, and it is random.
The RTP of Big Bass Splash is 96.71%. The series holds other versions with their own RTP and maximum win, so check the version name before you start.
