Big Bass Splash pays for matching symbols on 10 paylines across 5 reels and 3 rows, but the main goal is landing 3 scatters for free spins. Two base game features help the third scatter land:
Big Bass Splash awards 10, 15 or 20 free spins for 3, 4 or 5 scatters. When the round starts, a fisherman wild is added to the reels and collects every money symbol on screen when it lands. Pragmatic Play states these fish can carry values of up to 5,000x.
Big Bass Splash retriggers the free spins round with 10 more spins for every fourth fisherman wild that lands. The multiplier rises with each retrigger: 2x on the first, 3x on the second and 10x on the third. Pragmatic Play calls these multipliers integral to reaching the 5,000x max win.
Big Bass Splash can add up to five modifiers before free spins begin, by catching fish:

RTP is a theoretical average over a very large number of spins, not a forecast for one session.
The Big Bass Splash max win is 5,000x the bet, the most a single round can pay. It is a ceiling, not a target, and most sessions never come close.
Big Bass Splash is a high volatility slot, so wins come less often but can be larger, and your balance can fall for long stretches between free spins rounds. Pragmatic Play's official pages do not publish a bonus frequency. Pick a stake that is a small share of your budget, and never raise it to chase losses.
