A 5x3 grid with ten paylines, read from left to right, gives Big Bass Bonanza its fishing theme. Pays come from matching symbols on those lines, and two matching symbols is the fewest that pay. Fishing symbols such as the Spinning Lure, Tackle Box and Dragonfly share the reels with the card symbols A, K, Q and J. The Scatter symbol opens the free spins round.
Three, four or five Scatter symbols start 10, 15 or 20 free spins. In that round, a Fisherman Wild on every reel collects Money values, and the Fisherman Tracker Bar counts each fourth Wild. Each full bar adds 10 spins and the multiplier climbs x2, x3, then x10 over up to three retriggers. The round ends once the maximum win cap is reached.
100 times the bet buys the Free Spins round, so at A$2 it costs A$200.

A$100 staked is the basis of the RTP figures. RTP is the share of staked money the game pays back over time, not in one session. The version this site runs appears in the game rules.

Big Bass Bonanza rules
Useful once scatters land and you want to know what the free spins collect.
3, 4 or 5 SCATTER start 10, 15 or 20 spins. Every FISHERMAN WILD on all reels collects MONEY values. Each 4th WILD collected on the Fisherman Tracker Bar retriggers +10 FS, with multiplier x2, x3, then x10, up to 3 retriggers. Max win cap 2100x ends the round.
Base Game reelsFree spins, MONEY
A 5x3 grid with 10 paylines, read from left to right, is where every spin of the Base Game starts. MONEY symbols can appear on the reels in this mode. Wins follow the paylines, and a SCATTER landing here is what opens the Free Spins.

Fewer surprises ahead
Bizzo Casino explains each step in plain terms, so you know what each click does.
A$0.10 is the lowest bet, A$375 the highest. Set the bet before each spin, then decide on the Ante Bet, which costs 1.5x the bet and raises scatter frequency.
10 paylines run left to right across the 5x3 grid, and a win needs at least 2 matching symbols.
1.5x the bet switches on the Ante Bet, which makes Scatter land more often. MONEY symbols can appear on base game reels, and Fisherman Wild collects their values in free spins.
3, 4 or 5 Scatter symbols start 10, 15 or 20 free spins, and FISHERMAN WILD on all reels then collects MONEY values.
2,100x the bet is the cap that ends a free spins round, even with spins left, so set your money limit before the first spin.
10 paylines run left to right on this 5x3 grid, but how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, even with an RTP of 96.50. A high volatility game can go a long time without a big win. No one can predict the next spin from the spins before it.
96.50 is the RTP version this page covers for Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action. Which RTP version this site runs is shown only in the game rules. Open the rules inside the game before you play, so you know which version is running.
x2,100 the bet is the ceiling of the maximum win on Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action, and players reach that ceiling very rarely. Once a free spins round hits the cap, the round ends at that moment, whatever spins remain. The cap applies to every free spins round, so no spin can pay past it.

Know what to expect
Settles volatility, RTP, top win, bets and bonus cost before your first spin.
5x3 grid with 10 paylines, and the volatility is high. High volatility means wins come less often but can be larger when they land. Nothing on this page predicts when that will happen.
96.50% is the RTP of this slot. The RTP is the share of staked money the game returns over a very long run, so A$100 staked returns A$96.50 on average. A single session can finish well above or below that figure.
x2,100 is the most the game pays out, counted as a multiple of the bet. At A$2 that comes to A$4,200, and at the highest bet of A$375 it reaches A$787,500. A free spins round ends once it reaches this cap.
A$0.10 to A$375 is the full range of bets on this game. A$0.40, A$1 and A$2 are only examples used on this page, not the limits. The bet also sets the price of the Ante Bet and the buy, so check the price before you confirm.
3 SCATTER symbols start 10 free spins, 4 start 15 and 5 start 20. During free spins, Fisherman Wild symbols on all reels collect Money values. Every fourth Wild on the Fisherman Tracker Bar adds 10 spins, up to three times, with multipliers of x2, x3 and x10.
100x the bet buys the free spins, which is A$200 at the A$2 example bet. The buy and the Ante Bet cannot be active at the same time. The Ante Bet costs 1.5x the bet, which is A$3 at A$2, and raises how often scatters land.
