The Neko Flex Shad was designed from the ground up with a unique stainless-steel spine running through the body.

There’s something primal about it. Rat baits slap the water, spit air, and scream easy meal. Big predators don’t overthink that. They react. That split-second aggression is exactly what rat-style topwater lures like the FishLab BBZ Wake Rat trigger.

In the dog days of summer, patience and a frog are the one-two punch that turn a quiet lake into a battlefield of explosive strikes.
