Big Bass Trophy Catch: fishing for wins at 1red Casino
A Pragmatic Play fishing-themed slot with free spins bonus rounds, 96.50% RTP and high volatility where wins arrive less often but land much bigger.
Five reels meet fish, wilds and multiplied prizes
High volatility meets ocean fishing. Big Bass Trophy Catch is a fishing-themed slot that spins five reels across three rows with ten fixed paylines running left to right. The ocean setting frames your hunt for symbols that pay from three matching icons onwards, though the Fishing Float pays from just two. Money symbols appear on the reels with their values displayed, ready to trigger wins when the Fisherman Wild lands. Pragmatic Play released this high volatility game in 2026, meaning your wins come less often but can run much larger than you'd find on gentler slots.
Betting range and player control. This slot suits you if you have an appetite for longer dry spins between payouts and can handle swings in your balance on the way to those bigger wins. The betting range from NZ$0.10 to NZ$360 lets you set your own pace, whether you're testing the waters with small stakes or going all-in on the maximum. The paid Ante Bet option and Free Spins purchases add layers for players who want to shift the odds, though neither is needed to enjoy a full round.
Big Bass Trophy Catch bonus structure. The Free Spins bonus round is where the slot's true character emerges. Landing three, four or five Scatter symbols triggers ten, fifteen or twenty spins, and during these bonus rounds the Fisherman Wild collects money values from the reels—some as high as 5000 times your bet. Each fourth Wild collected retriggers an additional ten spins with a multiplier applied, and Scatters that land during Free Spins can add modifiers that boost all your wins or unlock extra fishing symbols, with the possibility of stacking all three modifiers for maximum impact.

Big Bass Trophy Catch: how the bonus rounds work
How free spins collect and multiply. Land three, four or five scatters to start 10, 15 or 20 spins. The Fisherman Wild appears on all reels and collects Money Symbol values from 2x to 5000x your bet. Every fourth wild collected retriggers ten additional spins with multipliers that increase with each retrigger—up to three times—and each scatter during free spins randomly awards one of three modifiers plus one to five extra spins.
Big Bass Trophy Catch Super Free Spins. Purchase 20 spins with all three modifiers active from the first spin, or trigger them organically during base game play. Money Symbols reach up to 5000x your total bet. Retriggers work identically to regular free spins—every fourth wild collected adds ten spins with stacking multipliers, up to three times—and cost 300x your current bet to buy.
Between spins: the base game setup. Your stake sits on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines running left to right. Money Symbols show their values on the reels but don't pay out here—they wait for the Fisherman Wild to collect them during bonus rounds. The Ante Bet option at 1.5x your stake increases how often scatters land, though it disables the ability to buy free spins.
Why a session's outcome cannot be guaranteed in advance
Bonuses come as a surprise. The scatter symbols that unlock free spins appear randomly across the reels. No pattern, count or timing tells you when three, four or five will land together, so the bonus round may come early or take many spins to arrive.
Randomness rules each result. Every spin's result is decided by chance the moment you press the button. The 96.50% RTP describes the long run across many thousands of spins, not what happens in your session or the next hour of play.
Maximum wins stay theoretical. The maximum win of NZ$1,800,000 at the highest bet is a ceiling you might never reach. Even high volatility means most spins pay less, and the biggest payouts happen very rarely.

Starting the bonus without Scatters
Pay NZ$500 to start 10 Free Spins immediately, skipping the wait for Scatter symbols. The Fisherman Wild collects Money Symbol values during the bonus round, with wins climbing to 5000x your stake.
Can you buy the strongest bonus?
Pay NZ$1,500 to trigger 20 Super Free Spins with all three modifiers active from spin one. Money Symbol values and Wild collection work as in standard Free Spins, with guaranteed power-ups from the start.
Common to rare scatter frequency
Pay NZ$7.50 instead of NZ$5 to double your Scatter hit rate in the base game, making bonus triggers land more often. This Ante Bet locks out the ability to buy Free Spins in that round.
