Rat-L-Trap Lures

Featured Replies

I have a couple, not worth the time/money in my opinion, Ive had better success with other cranks. Not impressed at all...

Around here the colors that seem to work best are chrome/ blue back, smokey joe, white, craw pattern, and something bright like chart.  I have traps, spots, and shads.  Sometimes it is not the color the bass go after but the sound.  Not all of the lipless cranks sound the same to the fish.  I can throw a chrome/blue back trap, and the bass ignore it.  I put on a chrome/blue back spot, and the bass tear it up.

Chrome with blue back for clear skies.

 

Chrome with black back for cloudy and overcast skies.

 

That is as simple as you can get with the Rats.

I've tried the Sexy Shad color on different baits with moderate success. What water clarity does everyone find they work best in?

It's not a color pattern that produces much for me. That leads me to think it would work better in waters that have some color to them.  I fish a lot of clear lakes and unless there's an alge bloom, I rarely tie anything on in that color pattern.

Maybe I missed it but I didn see anyone mention the xcalibur xr50 lipless cranks. Definitely one of my favorite.
