When giant predators are feeding near the surface, nothing sparks an instinctive strike like the wild panic of a rodent in distress—and that’s exactly what the BBZ Wake Rat delivers. Designed in partnership with lure visionary Bill Siemantel, this topwater bait captures the raw energy of surface prey, combining intense action, realism, and sound to provoke explosive attacks from the biggest fish in the lake. Every detail of the BBZ Wake Rat is crafted to mimic a frantic, skittering rodent: the deep gurgle of a metal lip on a steady retrieve, the sharp zig-zagging movement of a twitching pause, and the echo of an internal rattle and heavy knock that signal vulnerability from below. Whether walked, reeled, or burned, this bait disrupts the surface in all the right ways—keeping predators on edge and ready to pounce. Offered in two sizes for maximum versatility, the BBZ Wake Rat is just as at home tempting smallmouth and largemouth in pressured waters as it is drawing violent eats from musky, pike, or giant largemouth in heavy cover. It’s a high-impact tool that plays into a predator’s instincts—triggering those critical, reaction-based bites that change the game. Available in two sizes: A one piece 2 1/2” size and two piece 3 ½” size. Comes rigged with BBZ patented hard plastic segmented tail for more action. Classic gurgling/bubbling topwater sound on a steady retrieve and heavy knocking sound on a “walk the dog” twitch retrieve. Available in five proven tournament winning colors. Comes rigged on stainless steel split rings and high-end black nickel treble hooks. Tails are replaceable.
