Pragmatic Play · 2025
Big Bass Splash 1000 is a high volatility fishing slot from Pragmatic Play on a 5x3 grid. This page sets out the figures before your first spin.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and a player aged 18+.
Pick Big Bass Splash 1000 if you want a fishing theme on a grid of five reels and three rows. The base game uses 10 fixed paylines, and symbols pay from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel. A win needs as few as 2 matching symbols. Volatility is high, so wins tend to be rarer and bigger.
Look at the modes at your own pace before you settle on a stake. Beyond the Base Game, this slot runs Free Spins and Super Free Spins as separate stages. Money Collect, Progressive Multiplier, Scatter and Wild round out the feature list. Nobody can know in advance how often any of these modes will come up, and that stays true for every spin.

You switch on the Higher Chance to Win Feature from the sidebar, which changes the bet multiplier. Normal play uses 10x, while this option uses 20x for a higher natural chance of Free Spins. The reels carry more Scatter symbols when the feature is on.

Before the opening spin
Pelican Casino sets out each step in order, so you can take your time before betting.
Pick a bet between A$0.10 and A$500 before each round. The examples on this page use A$0.50 and A$1, and the bet sets the value of every win on the paytable.
The grid has five reels and three rows, with 10 fixed paylines. A win needs at least two matching symbols, and they must line up from the leftmost reel.
Wild and Scatter symbols work alongside Money Collect and Progressive Multiplier in the base game. Watch the reels for each one as the round plays out.
Landing Scatter symbols on the reels opens the Free Spins mode. The Super Free Spins mode is a separate round within the same game.
Decide your budget and your time limit before the first spin. Every spin uses the bet you chose, so the total you have spent rises with each round.
The Free Spins buy costs 100 times the bet, which is A$100 at the A$1 bet used in our examples.
| Bonus buy | Amount paid | RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Free Spins: 100 times | x100 · A$100 | – |
| Super Free Spins: 450 times | x450 · A$450 | – |
Choosing a stake means knowing how much comes back over time, which is the RTP. The table shows that figure for every A$100 staked. The version Pelican Casino runs appears in the game rules.
| Version | RTP | Provider setting |
|---|---|---|
| Variant 1 | 96.53% | No |
| Variant 2 | 96.52% | Available |
| Variant 3 | 96.51% | No |

After this you will know what each Free Spins and bonus screen shows before you play.
Deciding how much to stake starts with one fact: nobody knows in advance how often the bonus round comes. Every spin is random, so the result of one session is random too, whatever the RTP. A high RTP describes an average over a very long run, not your next visit. Set a budget before you sign in, and treat the game as entertainment.
Checking the RTP means reading the game rules, because only those rules show which RTP version Pelican Casino runs for this slot. The versions differ slightly, so an RTP quoted elsewhere is not always the one in play. Read the rules once before your first bet, and keep them to hand.
Looking at the top prize means reading it as a ceiling, not a target. The maximum win of Big Bass Splash 1000 is the most a single bet can return, and players reach it very rarely. Nothing shows when that moment will come, so judge the game by how much fun you have at your chosen bet.
First Spin Moment
Worried about spending real money before you know how the game plays?
Choose the demo to see the reels move first. It needs no money and pays nothing, while the real game needs an account and the legal age of 18+.
Start playingBefore you pick
Pelican Casino lists each game with its own figures, so you can compare before you play.
Big Bass Splash 1000
Pelican Casino shows the rules of each feature before you place a bet.
Start small if you want to learn the game first: the minimum bet is A$0.10. The Base Game, Free Spins and Super Free Spins follow the rules set out on this page, so you can read them before your first spin.
Compare the RTP before you pick a mode, since the Base Game returns 96.52% and the Ante Bet mode returns 96.53%. Three RTP versions are listed for this slot. RTP describes a long run, so it says nothing about what one session will return.
Set your stake before you spin, because the bet decides what every win pays. The lowest bet is A$0.10 and the highest is A$500, with A$0.50 and A$1 used as examples on this page.
Before you spin, treat the maximum win as a ceiling, not a target. The top prize is 25,000 times the bet, which is A$25,000 at the example bet of A$1 and A$12,500,000 at the highest bet of A$500.
Decide whether you want to buy the bonus before you spin, since each purchase is priced in multiples of your bet. Free Spins cost 100 times the bet, or A$100 at the example bet of A$1, and Super Free Spins cost 450 times the bet, or A$450.
Pick this version if the higher ceiling matters to you. Big Bass Splash 1000 offers a maximum win of 25,000 times the bet, while the other Big Bass titles cap at 5,000 times. Its RTP is 96.52%, against 96.50% in three titles and 96.51% in Big Bass Raceday Repeat.
Only players aged 18+ can play. For support call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or use BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you will spend before the first spin, and leave the rest of your money out of the session.
Choose your stopping point before the first spin, and keep to it after a win as well as after a loss.
Use the deposit and loss limits in your account settings to cap what you can pay in and lose in a set period.
If the game stops being fun, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop, and do not return to the reels until the decision feels settled.
