Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, has extended its fan-favourite fishing franchise with the release of Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action.

In this 5×3 Slot, where money symbols can be worth up to 2,000x the total bet, hitting three, four or five scatters activates an exciting bonus game with 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively.

The fisherman wild lends a helping hand during the feature, not only collecting all money symbols that land with him, but also randomly making money symbols appear when none are present on screen. Every fourth fisherman to land retriggers the bonus game with 10 additional free spins, as well as a 2x multiplier for the first retrigger, 3x for the next, and 10x once a dozen fishermen have been collected.
