Rapala BX Brat Crankbaits 5cm 1.8m 10g HAY

Rapala BX Brat HAY – Built Tough for Aggressive Shallow-Water Cranking

The BX Brat combines a buoyant balsa core with a rugged copolymer shell, delivering the lively action of classic balsa cranks with the durability to handle repeated contact with cover and structure.

Deflects Off Cover Without Hanging Up

The signature Rapala square bill lets this crankbait bounce and deflect off rocks, wood, and other hard structure, triggering reaction strikes from bass, pike, and other predators. The floating design helps it back out of tight spots, keeping you fishing instead of re-rigging.

Hard-Rolling Action with Intense Flash

A modified flat-side body with a V-cut belly produces a hard-rolling, erratic swimming action. Expect wild tracking and sudden kick-outs that mimic fleeing baitfish—exactly the trigger predatory fish look for.

Choose the Right Variant

The BX Brat family offers multiple depth and colour options to match conditions. Deeper-diving models suit medium-depth structure, while shallower versions excel over flats and around emergent cover.
