Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap still producing big results decades down the road: "Another trait that makes the 'Trap so effective is its user-friendly nature. Just about anyone, regardless of their fishing skill, can tie on a Rat-L-Trap and catch fish. That is why it is sometimes referred to as an 'idiot bait' among the pro ranks.

'A lot of pros wish the Rat-L-Trap had never been invented for that very reason,' said Tommy Martin, a veteran pro from Hemphill, Tx. 'When the conditions are right, just about anyone is apt to catch a big sack on it.'

The Rat-L-Trap will work during any season. It can be very effective during late winter and early spring, when bass are patrolling shallow and midrange depths ahead of the spawn."

A very productive lure, in (gold). Carefully avoiding snags. But, getting deep into the holes.
