The 5x3 grid of Big Bass Splash 1000, a Pragmatic Play fishing game, has ten paylines and high volatility. The page covers its payouts and bonus costs.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and a player aged 18+.

10 fixed paylines run across a 5x3 grid of five reels and three rows. The fishing theme fills the symbols, from a monster pickup truck and a fishing reel and rod down to the card symbols A, K and Q. Symbols pay from the leftmost reel to the right, and as few as 2 matching symbols make a win. Wild and Scatter symbols join this basic pattern.
Two modes sit on top of the base game: Free Spins and Super Free Spins. Money Collect and a Progressive Multiplier join the feature list for this slot. Among the 10 symbols on the grid, Wild and Scatter are the two with special roles.

The Ante Bet toggle in the sidebar switches the bet multiplier from 10x normal play to 20x. At 20x, the natural chance of Free Spins is higher, and more Scatter symbols sit on the reels. RTP with the toggle on is 96.53%.

Playing guide
The common worry is not knowing what a spin costs or how a win pays.
Pick your bet before the first spin. It can run from A$0.10 up to A$500. The examples on this page use A$0.40, A$2 and A$10. Each spin takes that bet.
The grid has 5 reels and 3 rows, with 10 fixed paylines. Symbols pay left to right from the leftmost reel, and two matching symbols are the fewest that pay.
The game's features include WILD, SCATTER, Money Collect and Progressive Multiplier. WILD and SCATTER are symbols on the reels, so either can land during a spin.
Free Spins runs as its own mode, apart from the base game, and Super Free Spins is a second mode. Both start from the base game reels, where SCATTER sits.
Set your stop point in money and time before the first spin. Results are random, so no session can be planned. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 for support.
100x the bet buys Free Spins and 450x buys Super Free Spins, which is A$1,000 and A$4,500 at the A$10 top example bet.
| Which one? | Cost (A$) | RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Free Spins for 100x | x100 · A$1,000 | – |
| Super Free Spins for 450x | x450 · A$4,500 | – |

Trial Mode
Fairgo Casino lets you open the demo first, so the decision to deposit comes after the reels.
The 5x3 grid of Big Bass Splash 1000 runs in demo mode without money and pays nothing; the real game needs an account and the legal age of 18+.
Play for money96.52% is the base RTP of Big Bass Splash 1000, a long-run average over very many rounds. It does not say how often the bonus round comes, and no one can know that in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP, so a short session can end far above or far below that average.
Ten fixed paylines pay on every base game spin, yet they do not tell you which RTP version Fairgo Casino runs. That detail is shown only in the game rules, so check them before you play. The three versions differ by a fraction of a percent, and only the game rules name the one in use.
25,000 times the bet is the top payout of Big Bass Splash 1000, and it is a ceiling reached very rarely. A ceiling marks the limit of the paytable. Nothing in it describes what a session will return, and no bet size or sequence of spins changes the odds of reaching it.

5 questions
The common worry is cost: what the bonus takes and which bets fit the budget.
A$1,000 buys Free Spins at an A$10 bet, which is 100 times the bet. Super Free Spins cost A$4,500 at the same bet, or 450 times the bet. With the Ante Bet mode on, the buy is disabled.
x25,000 is the maximum win in Big Bass Splash 1000, five times the x5,000 of Big Bass Blast, Big Bass Football Bonanza, Big Bass Trophy Catch and Big Bass Raceday Repeat. Its base RTP of 96.52% is above the 96.50% of Blast, Football Bonanza and Trophy Catch.
96.52% is the base RTP, but volatility is high, so results swing widely from round to round. Long stretches without a win are possible, and one round can pay many times the bet, up to x25,000.
On the 5x3 grid, Scatter symbols start Free Spins during the base game. Turning on the Ante Bet mode puts more Scatters on the reels, which raises the natural chance of Free Spins.
A$0.10 is the lowest bet and A$500 the highest bet allowed here. The tables on this page use A$0.40, A$2 and A$10 as examples, not as limits of the game.
18+ is the legal age here. For help in Australia, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or self-exclude with BetStop.
10 fixed paylines and high volatility mean a balance can run out between wins. Set a budget before the first spin and stop once it is spent.
A ceiling of x25,000 is not a target. Decide when to stop before you start, and keep to that point after a win too.
A base RTP of 96.52% still returns less than the stake over time, so set deposit and loss limits in your account before you play.
5x3 reels give no reason to chase a loss. When the game stops being fun, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop.
