Trusted by tournament pros and weekend anglers alike, the Bill Lewis Original Rat-L-Trap (1/2 oz) is the lipless crankbait that changed the game. Known for its loud, attention-grabbing rattle and tight, vibrating action, this iconic lure has been catching bass and other predators for decades — and it’s still a must-have in every tackle box.
Weighing in at 1/2 oz, the Original Rat-L-Trap is ideal for covering water quickly, triggering reaction strikes, and locating active fish. Its internal BB chamber produces one of the loudest rattles in the game, making it perfect for stained water, windy conditions, and aggressive feeding windows. Fish it fast, rip it through grass, or yo-yo it off bottom — it’s as versatile as it is deadly.
Features:
1/2 oz weight for long casts and fast retrieves
Loud internal rattle chamber to provoke aggressive strikes
Lipless design ideal for grass, open water, or structure
Tight vibration action for high-speed reaction bites
Rigged with premium hardware and realistic finishes
Whether you're chasing bass, redfish, or stripers, the Original Rat-L-Trap delivers proven performance that stands the test of time.
