The reels turn on a 5x4 grid with a fishing theme and 12 fixed paylines. Wins are read from the leftmost reel to the right, across adjacent reels only. Two matching symbols on a line are enough to pay, the fewest in this game. Boats, rods, lures and tackle boxes sit beside the card ranks A to 10, and the fish carry cash values set by the paytable.
Scatter symbols start the free spins, and the fisherman Wild appears only in that mode. Once it lands, the Wild collects the cash values of all MONEY symbols on screen. Each retrigger adds spins and a money collection multiplier, and the round win has a fixed ceiling. Money Collect and the Multiplier are what set the bonus apart from the base game.
Know each move
Settles how a round runs, from the bet you pick to the limit that ends your session.
Each spin on the 5x4 grid costs the bet you chose, from A$0.12 up to A$240. Every win pays in proportion to that stake, so a bet change moves every payout.
Wins form on the 12 fixed paylines, read left to right from the leftmost reel across adjacent reels. Two matching symbols pay, so a line does not need five symbols.
On the reels, MONEY symbols carry cash values that pay per the paytable. Wild stays out of the base game, while Money Collect and Multiplier work only in free spins.
Three, four or five Scatter symbols start the free spins, and more Scatters bring more spins. The Wild fisherman appears only in that round.
Losing spins can run in a row, and on this high volatility slot they drain a balance quickly. Set your session budget before the first spin and stop at that limit.
Four screens, one round
Base game, free spins and a win screen, so you know what each view shows.
Each spin on the reels returns part of every stake. Per A$100 staked, return to player is the average paid across many rounds. The version Mybet Casino runs appears in the game rules.

Bigger Bass Bonanza spins
The question readers bring here is how the free spins start and run.
Three, four or five SCATTER symbols start 10, 15 or 20 free spins. The WILD fisherman substitutes for all but SCATTER and collects MONEY values. Every fourth collected WILD retriggers 10 spins, with x2, x3 or x10 MONEY collection multiplier, three times max. Round wins cap at 4000x bet.
Scatter landingMultiplied cash
Each spin fills the 5x4 grid, and wins pay left to right on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel along 12 fixed paylines. MONEY symbols and regular symbols pay per the paytable. The fisherman WILD only appears in the free spins.

Bigger Bass Bonanza
Settles whether the demo suits you and what the real game requires before the first spin.
Spins in the demo need no money and pay nothing. The real game needs an account and the legal age of 18+.
Play nowOn the reels, three, four or five Scatter symbols start the free spins, and nobody can tell before a spin when they will land. How often the bonus comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP, so a short session can end far below the stake and a long one can end above it.
Each spin on the reels follows a single RTP version. Which version Mybet Casino runs for this slot is shown only in the game rules, and those rules decide the RTP you play on. Check them before a session starts.
Round wins on the reels stop at a fixed cap, and the maximum win of Bigger Bass Bonanza is a ceiling reached very rarely. Read it as the limit of the game, not as a result to expect.
Players must be 18+. For support call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or exclude yourself through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you can afford to lose before the session starts, and stop once that amount is gone.
Pick your stopping point before the first spin, and hold to it after a big win as well as after a loss.
Use the deposit and loss limits in your account before you play, so the limits are already set when the reels start.
When the game stops being fun, take a pause, or self-exclude through BetStop. Stepping away is a sensible move at any point in a session.

Common questions
After this page you will know the grid, the paylines and the free spins before any spin.
Round results on the reels of Bigger Bass Bonanza vary widely, because the slot has high volatility. Expect uneven sessions with big swings in both directions. The volatility label tells you about the spread of results, not about any single outcome.
Spins on the reels return a theoretical 96.71 percent over the long run, which is an average across many rounds. It does not promise anything for a single session. The other versions of the series sit in the table on this page.
A round on the reels can pay up to x4,000 the bet, and the cap covers the full round win. The maximum win is a ceiling, not a typical result. A long free spins round cannot pay beyond that ceiling.
Three, four or five SCATTER symbols on the reels start the free spins, giving 10, 15 or 20 spins. The fisherman WILD only appears in this mode. It substitutes for every symbol except SCATTER and collects the cash values of MONEY symbols when it lands.
Each round on the reels runs on a 5x4 grid with 12 fixed paylines, read left to right. This page sets out the modes, the paytable and the bet range from A$0.12 to A$240 before the first spin. Use those rules to size your bet before you place it.
