About Big Bass Splash
Here comes a slot that merges two of the most popular themes in the industry, giving it broad appeal. What will they think of next? Pragmatic Play and Reel Kingdom have brought together the fishing and cowboy themes and applied them to one of the giant franchises of slots. Big Bass Splash is part of the Big Bass Bonanza franchise, featuring money fish symbols, watery surroundings, and one of the most coveted free spins features out there.
In Big Bass Splash, a cowboy drives his monster truck to the lake for some good old-fashioned fishing. You and the cowboy could be in for some big catches and sweet spins in this game, with a bonus feature that comes with some extra gameplay to keep things interesting.
Your biggest catch in Big Bass Splash is a potential maximum prize of 5000x, and that you’ll be playing on the typical Big Bass Bonanza 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. This game comes with medium to high volatility.
Symbols in Big Bass Splash
In the spirit of the Big Bass Bonanza tradition, Big Bass Splash has retained most of its usual symbols, but some have been replaced with cowboy and trucker iconography. You’ll find that the highest-paying symbol is the Monster Truck, with a 200x if you land five of these on a single payline.
You’ll then want to look out for the fishing rod, the dragonfly, the fishing box, and different-sized bass with a range of values. The lower-paying symbols in the game are represented by standard card symbols of 10, J, Q, K and A.
Wilds and Scatters
In Big Bass Splash, the usual green bass has been retained as the Scatter Symbol; it also appears as the scatter symbol in the other Big Bass Bonanza slots. You will need at least three of these to trigger the free spins bonus round.
Meanwhile, the Wild in Big Bass Splash is represented by a bearded cowboy who has gone fishing. You’ll only see this wild during the bonus feature, where he’ll substitute for all other symbols except the scatter to form a winning combination.

Bonus Features in Big Bass Splash
Free Spins
You can activate the Free Spins feature in Big Bass Splash by landing three or more Scatter symbols during the base game. Three scatters will award you 10 free spins. Moreover, Big Bass Splash comes with a nifty little feature that helps you complete three scatters by casting a fishing line. The hook will tug up the remaining scatter you need to trigger the bonus.
Before the bonus begins, the grid will decrease in size to make room for a circling of fish around a sunken cowboy boot. From above the surface, the cowboy will throw a lasso to catch a fish. If he lassoes the boot, you won’t win any extra features for the bonus, but if he lassoes a fish, you’ll be awarded one of the prizes and he’ll once again attempt to lasso another fish for another prize. This will continue until he lassoes the boot. There are five modifiers you can catch:
- More Fisherman symbols: This modifier will increase your chances of landing the wild symbol during the bonus round.
- More Fish symbols: This will increase the number of fish symbols that land on the reels.
- +2 Free Spins: The bonus feature will begin with an additional two free spins, allowing for two extra free spins with each retrigger.
- Start from Level 2: This will start the round from the second phase on the wild trail.
- More dynamites, hooks and bazookas: This will heighten the chances of activating these features.
When the fish symbols, with their random money value, land on the reels while there is a wild present, the cowboy will reel in each one with his fishing rod, gathering the amount to be added to your final winnings. The Wild Trail feature at the top of the grid will collect every wild that lands on the reels; with every fourth wild, you’ll be given 10 additional spins with a multiplier.
Big Bass Splash summary
Besides the obvious cowboy paraphernalia and the protagonist himself, the overall Big Bass Bonanza appearance has remained constant for this slot. There is, however, a key difference, and it's a welcome one: The Buy Feature allows you to purchase the free spins feature.
This is not the first time that Pragmatic Play has taken one of its best-selling slots and upcycled it with new additions and features. In fact, we’ve come to expect it. However, it’s something that works well and draws in those who need a change of pace. We certainly appreciate their effort; the underwater design is magnificent, and the typical joyous tune that accompanies most Big Bass Bonanza games.
