Description

Unlike anything on the market, the Pack Rat is a sinking sub-surface rodent bait with a 4″ body, designed in collaboration with Benno Huene from Little Creeper Baits. I like to fish this bait along and directly though weed lines. The closer you are to shallow water and shoreline the more natural the presentation - rip rap has to be my number one place to throw it. Designed to fish on an Owner Beast or Trokar weighted hook. The Pack Rat is still one of my favorites - this bait flat out gets bit! Recoil Edition: Made of super-strong, super-soft silicone, with built-in screw lock. Color: Black with Pink Tail

Field Notes

This sinking rodent-style bait is designed to be fished along weed lines, shoreline cover, and especially rip rap. It works best with a steady retrieve or slow presentation near shallow cover where bass can ambush it naturally.

Pros

  • Unique rodent profile stands out from standard soft plastics
  • Soft silicone body with built-in screw lock for secure rigging
  • Good for weed lines and shoreline cover

Cons

  • Specialized presentation may not be as versatile as standard swimbaits
  • Requires the right weighted hook setup to fish properly
