Field Notes

This is a large rat-style wake bait with a shallow crankdown, so it’s best worked slowly over the surface or just under it. The knock-and-squeak sound and bulky profile make it a strong choice for night fishing, stained water, and drawing fish from a distance. Heavy gear is recommended to cast and control it properly.

Pros

  • Big profile for drawing aggressive strikes
  • Wake bait action with shallow crankdown capability
  • Knock-and-squeak sound helps in dirty water and at night

Cons

  • Requires heavy tackle
  • Tails can tear off
  • Hook rash and wear are expected over time
