Pragmatic Play · 2025
Big Bass Reel Repeat is a high volatility 5x3 video slot from Pragmatic Play. This page covers its figures, rounds and features before you spin.
Demo is free; the real game needs an account and players must be 18+.
Five reels of three rows each, with 10 fixed paylines, make up the 5x3 grid. The video slot has a fishing and ocean theme. Symbols pay from left to right, so a win needs at least 2 matching symbols in a row from the left on one payline. Speedboats, dragonflies, tackle boxes and frogs on lily pads sit alongside A, K, Q and J.
Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels start Free Spins: 3 scatters give 10 spins, 4 give 15, 5 give 20. The Fisherman Wild, on all five reels, collects every money symbol on screen. Each fourth collected Wild adds 10 spins. Before each round, a Pick a Card choice can add more fish, higher multipliers or easier retriggers. Reel Repeat can restart a round, keeping its wins.

Big Bass Reel Repeat
You will have followed one round from bet to payout and set a limit before the first spin.
The reels wait for your total bet, from A$0.10 up to A$500. Your bet sets the money value of every win, so A$0.40, A$1 and A$10 pay different sums.
Symbols on the 5 reels and 3 rows pay left to right on 10 fixed paylines. Two in a row can already pay.
MONEY symbols can sit on the base game reels, but nothing is collected until Free Spins. Fisherman Wild appears only in Free Spins.
Three, four or five SCATTER symbols start Free Spins with 10, 15 or 20 spins. Before each Free Spins round, pick 1 of 12 face-down cards that can change its rules.
Each spin lands on a result nobody knows in advance, so set a limit before the first spin. A Free Spins round ends at once when its total win hits 5,000x.

After this, you will know how each bonus starts, what it gives you, and how it ends.
3/4/5 SCATTER symbols anywhere start Free Spins with 10/15/20 spins. FISHERMAN WILD appears only here, on all 5 reels, and collects the value of every MONEY symbol on screen. Every 4th collected WILD retriggers +10 spins and climbs the multiplier ladder, 2x/3x/10x by default or 4x/6x/20x under HIGHER MULTIPLIERS.
Base Game playExtra spins
Shown before every Free Spins round, natural or bought, except the guaranteed MEGA buy. You pick 1 of 12 face-down cards. The cards reveal regular Free Spins, MORE FISH, HIGHER MULTIPLIERS, 3 FISHERMAN TO RETRIGGER, or MEGA, which combines all three modifiers.
Free Spins triggeredA chosen modifier
When a Free Spins round ends, a chrome wheel decides. A green REEL REPEAT! half restarts the whole round, with the same spin count and modifier odds, and keeps all wins. Reel Repeat needs Ante Bet 16x or 25x, or BUY FREE SPINS + REPEAT CHANCE.
Free Spins endingA full replay
Buy Free Spins starts a Free Spins round straight away, with no SCATTER needed. The Pick a Card step comes first, except for Buy Mega Free Spins. Ante Bet 15x or 25x disables this purchase.

Practice mode
Newvegas Casino wants you to see how the reels run before any stake goes in.
The reels spin in the demo without any money, and the demo pays nothing. The real game needs an account and you must be 18 or older.
Play nowScatter symbols land on the reels at random, so how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. Nobody can work that rate out from a few spins. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP, and a session can end well below or well above where it started.
Reels stop on fresh symbols after every spin, and each stop is a new draw. Which RTP version is running is shown only in the game rules, so read that section before the first spin. Look for the version in the rules, not in the reels, because the reels alone do not name it.
Wins build up on the reels during Free Spins, and the round ends at once when the total reaches the cap. The maximum win of Big Bass Reel Repeat is a ceiling reached very rarely, so treat it as the top of the scale rather than a target.

Know what to expect
Newvegas Casino shows the rules and the money figures before you place a bet.

This page explains how a round runs, so you can read the rules before any stake goes in. Start at a small bet, because the bet level sets what every win pays.
Three, four or five SCATTER symbols anywhere on the reels start Free Spins, giving 10, 15 or 20 spins. Before each round, you pick one of 12 face-down cards that can change the rules of the round.
Three buy options: Buy Free Spins at 100 times the bet, Buy Free Spins + Repeat Chance at 160 times, and Buy Mega Free Spins at 1,250 times. At A$10 bet these cost A$1,000, A$1,600 and A$12,500. Ante Bet at 15x or 25x switches the buy off.
On the reels, high volatility means wins come in bigger gaps, with stretches of small or no pay between them. The maximum win cannot be planned, and nobody can say in advance when a big win will land.
The lowest bet is A$0.10 and the highest is A$500. Paytable figures use A$0.40, with A$1 and A$10 as other examples. At A$500 the maximum win is A$2,500,000. The Ante Bet at 25x turns a bet of A$10 into A$25.
