Field Notes

This is a topwater rat-style bait designed to be cranked over weed tops and worked along hard bottom. It deflects well, then floats back up and backslides, which can trigger follow-up strikes from bass. Best used with a steady retrieve around vegetation and shallow cover.

Pros

  • Floats back up after deflection for secondary strikes
  • Good weed-top and rock deflection
  • Large profile can draw big bass

Cons

  • Single-color black may be less visible in some conditions
  • Specialty bait with a higher price point
  • Best results usually require the right retrieve speed and cover
