Slot machine details and review Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake

The Big Bass fishing series from Pragmatic Play has so many sequels by now that it could easily deserve its own fishing festival. And it’s no surprise – the mix of simple mechanics, a fishing vibe and serious win potential is simply addictive. But each new instalment brings something different – sometimes a new look, other times special features or bonus mechanics. Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake is one of the most interesting additions, because alongside the classic collecting of fish and multipliers it also adds extra layers of tension and rewards on a 5-reel game board.

A high volatility slot. Wins are rare, but can be really big. The game has more pronounced fluctuations and can often go without hitting anything for a long time, suitable for players who like adrenaline, higher risk and work with a larger budget. More about volatility here.

Slot theme and symbols

From the moment you launch it, you’ll feel a different vibe than in the previous instalments. This isn’t just a standard fishing theme – the whole setting feels mysterious and luxurious. Golden tones, a mystical water surface, and animations that hint at hidden treasure create the sense that you’re not only reeling in fish, but also uncovering secret riches. Pragmatic Play pays attention to the details, and it shows again here – the symbols are crisp, colourful, and full of character. On the reels you’ll find both the classics and premium symbols that take the atmosphere up a level: the card symbols 10, J, Q, K, A – low payouts, but very frequent combinations. The higher-value symbols are fishing gear, scales, and fish. Of course, there are special symbols too! The WILD symbol appears mainly during Free Spins. It substitutes for all regular symbols except the Scatter. It collects values from Money symbols (fish) that appear during the bonus. The Scatter symbol triggers Free Spins – you just need to land 3 or more Scatters. The more Scatters you hit, the better starting position you’ll get for the bonus. Money symbols, on the other hand, display random cash values. Their value is added to your winnings if there’s also a WILD on the reels at the same time. Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake offers a wide betting range, so it suits complete beginners as well as experienced players who aren’t afraid to take a risk. Wins are counted from left to right and the maximum win is set at 5000Γ— your stake – which is a pretty strong incentive. The RTP sits at around 96.07%, and the volatility is notably high!

WILD Symbol

In this online slot, you’ll be joined by some very handy WILD symbols that can appear during Free Spins! Their unique function is to substitute for all game symbols except Scatter symbols and Money symbols.

Symbol Scatter symbols slot Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake by Pragmatic Play
Scatter symbols

This bonus symbol will really make your day. You can land it anywhere, and without even forming a payline it will conjure up a few Free Spins for you. Simply land 3-5 Scatters to win 10-20 Free Spins. It can happen that you land only two of them! In that case, you’ll sometimes get a chance to land another one. One of the following situations will occur:

  • If the Scatter symbols can, they will move down by one position and the reel without Scatter symbols will spin again.
  • After the result of the first spin, additional Scatter symbols will randomly appear in positions on the reels.

Before the Free Spins start, you’ll pick a card from 12 possible cards to reveal the type of Free Spins round you’ve won. If a bonus card is revealed, the standard Free Spins round will start. If the Secrets of the Golden Lake card is revealed, the Golden Lake Free Spins feature will start. During Free Spins, each FISHRMAN WILD symbol collects all values from the Money symbols on the reels. All WILD symbols that appear during the bonus feature are collected until the end of the round. Every fourth collected WILD symbol triggers a bonus feature, awards an extra 10 Free Spins, and the multiplier for collecting Money symbols increases to 2x for the second level, 3x for the third, and 10x for the fourth level. After that, the feature can’t be triggered again.

Golden Free spins

During this feature, the regular symbols disappear and only an empty grid remains. The reels are replaced with special reels featuring Money symbols, WILD symbols, and blank symbols. You’ll also receive 10 Free Spins! On each spin, all winning paylines or combinations with Money symbols are paid, and every WILD symbol that appears collects the value of all Money symbols on the reels. All WILD symbols that appear during the feature are collected until the end of the round. During Free Spins, several situations can occur at random:

  • When WILD symbols appear but no Money symbols, Money symbols may appear in random positions.
  • When Money symbols appear but no WILD symbols, at the end of the Free Spins a hook appears that pulls a random reel up and WILD symbols appear on the screen.
  • When only WILD symbols appear, at the end of the Free Spins a curtain animation appears that changes all symbols on the reels, except the WILD symbols, into something else.

Ante Bet

You’ll have the option to choose a bet multiplier. Depending on the selected bet, the game behaves differently. Here’s what awaits you:

  • Multiplier x15: the chance of triggering a Free Spins round is higher and Scatter symbols will be available on the reels. However, the option to buy Free Spins won’t be available at this time.
  • Multiplier x10: normal gameplay

If you play with Ante Bet, there’s a chance that at the end of a spin or re-spin (triggered by 2 Scatters without a third), 3 Scatters will be added to random positions on the reels.

Buy Free spins

Once you buy Free Spins, you’ll be taken straight into them. Then one of two options will happen:

  •  You’ll pay 100x your total bet to trigger the Free Spins feature. When buying the feature, before the round starts you’ll choose one card out of 12 and you’ll get either classic Free Spins or GOLDEN Lake Free Spins.
  • You’ll pay 270x your total bet to trigger GOLDEN Lake Free Spins. When buying the feature, you won’t choose a card because the feature starts directly.

Fish symbols work here as more than just regular paying symbols. On every spin, a fish gets a random cash value, which can be won during the Free Spins feature. Possible values are: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 200x, 500x or 1666x, 2500x up to 5000x the total bet. During Free Spins, you’ll watch as one fish after another slips out of the landing net and its value is deducted.

Our rating of the game Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake

Big Bass Secrets of the Golden Lake is a beautiful continuation of the popular series. Pragmatic Play has stuck with a proven concept, but wrapped it in a mysterious, luxurious coat. The game offers the classic fishing mechanic, multipliers and free spins, but thanks to the visuals and atmosphere it feels fresh. If you enjoy the Big Bass series, you should definitely give this sequel a go – if only because it takes you to a golden lake full of secrets and (hopefully) some hefty wins too. Get your rod ready, spin the reels and see what secrets Golden Lake reveals to you.
