Pragmatic Play · 2024
A 5x4 grid and 96.07% RTP sit behind this high volatility Pragmatic Play video slot. This page covers the modes, paytable and rules before your first spin.
10 fixed paylines run left to right across a 5x4 grid, and a line pays from just 2 matching symbols. The theme mixes Christmas and fishing, and the symbols include a Puffin, a Red Tackle Box and the card ranks A to 10. MONEY symbols take a random value on every spin, from 0.2x to 1000x the total bet, and a random collect event can pay all of them at once with a 1x to 50x multiplier.
10 base Free Spins follow the Pick a Box room, where gifts add spins, guarantee MONEY symbols or pre-collect Fisherman Wilds. Each Fisherman Wild collects all visible MONEY values, and every 4th collected Wild adds 10 spins and lifts the multiplier through 2x, 3x, 10x, 20x, 30x, 40x and 50x. Progressive Multiplier, Respin, Scatter, Money Collect and Wild complete the feature set.

Big Bass Xmas Extreme
You will have walked through one full round, from bet to payout, and set a limit.
A$0.10 is the lowest bet and A$375 the highest, and you set it before the first spin. Every MONEY value on the reels scales with that total bet.
10 fixed paylines run left to right across the 5x4 grid, and a line pays when at least 2 matching symbols land on it.
0.2x to 1000x your total bet is the value range of each MONEY symbol. A random Money Collect event pays all of them with a 1x to 50x multiplier.
10 base spins open the Free Spins, and before them the 3D Christmas Pick a Box room lets you choose gifts that add spins, guaranteed MONEY symbols or Fisherman Wilds.
A$375 is the top bet, so set a budget and a stopping point before the first spin. Support is available through the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.
100x the bet buys Free Spins outright, so at the A$2 top example bet the price is A$200.

Clearer rules, fewer surprises
After reading, you will know how each mode starts and what changes in it.
A 3D Christmas room comes before Free Spins. Gifts add spins (+1, +2 or +3, max 6), MONEY symbols on every spin (1 to 3), pre-collected Fisherman Wilds (1 to 3) or Remove Lowest Fish, which removes the 2x, then the 5x MONEY values. The boot ends picking.
Base Game reelsGifts and modifiers
Free Spins start with 10 base spins plus any pick box extras. Pink and rose cells with candy-cane borders are the special reels. Each FISHERMAN WILD collects all visible MONEY values. Every 4th collected Wild retriggers +10 spins, climbs the multiplier from 2x to 50x, max 8 levels.
Bonus triggerSpins and multipliers
The reels form a 5x4 grid with 10 fixed paylines, read left to right. Each spin, MONEY symbols take random values from 0.2x to 1000x of the total bet. A random collect event can award all MONEY values with a 1x to 50x multiplier.
Bet placedPaylines, MONEY values
96.07% is the long-run return, and it says nothing about the next session. How often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. Each spin is random, so one session can end well above or below its stake whatever the RTP.
Only 96.07% is listed for Big Bass Xmas Extreme. Which RTP version runs in this lobby is shown only in the game rules, so check them before the first spin. Check them before you set a bet of A$1 or A$2.
x10,000 the bet is the maximum win, which is A$20,000 at the example top bet of A$2 and A$3,750,000 at the A$375 maximum bet. It is a ceiling reached very rarely, so no session can be planned around it.
Demo guide
After this section you will know how to start a demo and what real play requires.
A$0.10 to A$375 a spin is the real-money range, and the demo needs no money and pays nothing. Real play needs a Bizzo Casino account, and you must be 18+.
Start playingFour Questions
Four quick answers on volatility, maximum win, the bonus buy and the allowed bets before you play.
10 fixed paylines on a 5x4 grid give this slot high volatility. Results swing widely between small and large wins, and nobody can tell in advance when a big one arrives. Set your bet with that swing in mind.
10,000 times your bet is the top win for this slot. At the A$2 example bet that is A$20,000, and at the highest bet of A$375 it reaches A$3,750,000. Both figures are the ceiling, not a typical result.
A$200 is the price of Buy Free Spins at the A$2 example bet. The cost is 100 times the bet, so it changes with your stake.
A$0.10 is the smallest bet and A$375 the largest. This page uses A$1 and A$2 only as examples, and the paytable works from an A$1 bet. Bets run from the smallest to the largest limit.
