The Rapala Balsa Xtreme BX Brat Squarebill Crankbaits are renowned for their compact size and powerful performance. They are widely considered as one of the top shallow running crankbaits on the market. The BX Brat is specifically designed for power fishing in shallow areas with various types of cover, such as rocks, stumps, laydowns, and grass.
The square lip and line tie of the bait are strategically positioned to make the bait swim with its nose down. This design allows the lip to be the first point of contact with obstacles, enabling the bait to deflect away from cover and avoid getting stuck. This aggressive action triggers reaction bites from fish and keeps the VMC treble hooks clear and ready for action.
The BX Brat is constructed with a balsa inner core that is coated with a rugged copolymer armor. The balsa core gives the bait a distinct wobbling and swimming action, thanks to its high buoyancy. The durable copolymer coating provides excellent impact resistance, ensuring that the crankbait can withstand casting mishaps without breaking apart.
The BX Brat comes in models with diving depths of 3′ and 6′. This versatility makes it a popular choice among tournament anglers who rely on shallow cranking techniques.
