Rapala BX Brat 5cm 0.9m 10g

Rapala BX Brat 5 cm — Shallow Crankbait That Triggers Predators in the Top Metre

The BX Brat is Rapala's go-to compact crankbait for active lure fishing. At 10 g and just 5 cm, it covers the 0–0.9 m zone with authority, making it a natural choice wherever perch and zander are holding shallow.

Balsa Action in a Tough Shell

The BX Brat combines a balsa core with a copolymer outer shell — giving you the lively, responsive wobble that balsa is famous for, wrapped in a body that handles rocks, timber, and hard strikes without cracking. The result is a hard-rolling, hard-flashing action that draws reaction bites even when fish are reluctant.

Built for Rivers and Lakes Alike

At a running depth of 0.9 m, this crankbait works the productive zone just beneath the surface. Cast it along reed edges, work it through shallow flats, or bump it off the first shelf in a river — the BX Brat's wild tracking and kick-out action generates disturbance that predatory fish rarely ignore. It covers water quickly, making it an efficient search bait in unfamiliar venues.

Choose the Right Variant

The BX Brat family spans two running depths and several colour options. Match the depth and colour to your water and target species:

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 0.9 m running depth (current product, no colour specified): the shallow model; ideal for perch and zander over flats, in rivers, and along shallow margins — use when fish are holding in the top metre

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 0.9 m, Hot Dang: same shallow model in a bright attractor colour; effective in stained or coloured water

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 0.9 m, Bone Craw: same shallow model in a natural crayfish-style pattern; a confident choice in clear water or over gravel

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 0.9 m, Hay: natural baitfish tone for pressured fish in clear conditions

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 0.9 m, CSD: floating model with a squarebill; suited to deflecting off hard cover

• Rapala BX Brat 5 cm 10 g — 1.8 m running depth (Hay, Chartreuse Shad, S): the deeper model with squarebill; reaches down to 1.8 m and is ideal when fish are holding on the second shelf or over deeper flats
