Big Bass Floats My Boat

Master the fishing theme and money collect mechanic

Money values drive the action. Big Bass Floats My Boat is a fishing-themed slot from Pragmatic Play with 5 reels across 3 rows and 10 paylines running left to right. Released in February 2024, it centres on collecting random money values that appear on the reels. The octopus feature occasionally transforms symbols into scatters when you land exactly two scatters, creating opportunities for bonus triggers. High volatility means wins arrive less often but can be substantially larger.

Patient players, bigger payouts. You'll suit this slot if you chase bigger wins and can handle swings between payouts. The high volatility and 5000x maximum win in free spins make it built for players comfortable with longer dry spells. Minimum bets start at NZ$0.10, so you can play cautiously, but bonus buys and the ante bet option let you chase features faster if you prefer a more aggressive approach.

Watch money land and collect. The money collect mechanic shapes every spin. Random MONEY symbols appear with values between 0.2x and 50x your bet. After each base game spin, visible money values are collected and awarded automatically. This keeps the action moving even when paylines don't fire, building tension around what the next money symbol might deliver.

How each round of Big Bass Floats My Boat plays

Read before your first spin to see what you control and what happens automatically.

Base bet or boosted
You choose your bet from NZ$0.10 to NZ$375 per spin. You can use Ante Bet to pay 1.5 times more and boost how often Scatter symbols land, or keep your base stake steady.
Paylines and symbols align
You win when three or more matching symbols line up on the 10 paylines that run left to right across the five reels. The RK Boat symbol pays from just two matches, and Money symbols land with random values you collect during the spin.
Octopus transforms your symbols
During a base game spin, Money symbols appear on the reels with face values already shown. After the spin settles, those visible Money amounts are collected and awarded to you. An octopus can also transform a symbol into a Scatter if exactly two Scatters are showing.
Three Scatters launch free spins
Standard Free Spins begin when you land three, four or five Scatter symbols for 10, 15 or 20 free spins. A Fisherman Wild symbol appears on all reels and collects Money values; landing more Fishermen also builds a position multiplier that grows with each collection.
Set your limits in advance
Set a session time reminder or deposit limit before you start so you play only what you planned. You can lower your limits anytime, or use cooling-off periods and self-exclusion through Spinfever Casino or the Gambling Helpline New Zealand.

Step through a round of Big Bass Floats My Boat

See All

Build your multiplier during free spins

Collect money where it stacks highest. Land 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols to start 10, 15 or 20 spins. The fisherman wild collects money symbols at their face value, multiplied by how many money symbols have landed in that cell before, starting at 1x. Every fourth fisherman collected adds 10 more spins, up to the 5000x cap.

Big Bass Floats My Boat's premium bonus. Buy this mode at 300x your total bet for exclusive access to the RK boat symbol. Money collects the same way as standard free spins, but you get another 10 spins every third fisherman instead of every fourth. The 5000x maximum win applies here too.

What you gain between bonus rounds. Before each spin, money symbols land with random values from 0.2x to 50x your bet. After a spin ends, these visible values may collect and award instantly. Land exactly 2 scatters and the octopus transforms a symbol into scatter position, helping you inch toward a bonus round.

Big Bass Floats My Boat: average return on each 100 wagered

RTP is the average return over a very large number of spins. The figure that applies to you depends on whether you're playing the standard game, buying a bonus round, or using the ante bet. Each combination has its own RTP.

What stays unknown until you spin

When does the bonus start? The bonus round may come on your second spin or your hundredth. No pattern exists to predict when scattered symbols will land and trigger free spins.

This session is unpredictable. Your results across one session follow no guaranteed path. The RTP of 96.07% describes returns over millions of spins, not what happens in yours.

When you are in a winning session. A NZ$50,000 win at your example bet of NZ$10 sits at the far edge of possibility. You are far more likely to see smaller wins or losing spins.
