Bass Baggin' Slot by RealTime Gaming

Golden hour light across a still lake, pine trees in silhouette, a weathered boathouse on one bank and a rowboat tied to the dock on the other. The card symbols look hand-carved from driftwood, each one dangling a small chain link, and the high-value icons are all tackle - a red-and-yellow fishing boat bobbing in its tile, a purple rod with a pink spinning reel, a golden bait lure on a hook, and a green tackle box cracked open to show its contents. The whole grid sits inside rough timber logs lashed together with rope, a red-and-white bobber hanging off the left post.

Two progressive jackpots sit above the reels - Minor on the left in a blue banner, Major on the right in orange. Both are progressive. They tick up with every spin across every player on the network, and either one triggers randomly after any paid spin. No special symbol combination needed, no bonus round to qualify. You just spin, and the game decides. The Minor sat around $545 and the Major near $3,270 during testing at $1.00 bets, but those numbers shift constantly.

Free games trigger through scatter symbols, and that's the only feature beyond the jackpots. No buy bonus, no ante bet, no expanding mechanics. The base game runs on 25 fixed paylines paying left to right, and the free spins round plays on the same grid with the same rules. There's no escalation mechanic or retrigger to extend the round - you get your spins and that's it.

RTG also released Bass Baggin' Bounty, which shares the fishing theme but runs on a wider 5x4 grid with 1024 ways. This original version is the simpler build - fewer paylines, no ways-to-win math, and a feature set that leans almost entirely on those two random jackpots filling the gap where a more complex bonus would normally sit.
