FishLab BBZ Bio Rat 7in Topwater Lure – White/Bone

Meet the FishLab BBZ Bio Rat

Developed with input from award-winning lure designer Bill Siemantel and the FishLab Tackle team, the BBZ Bio Rat brings a bold presence to topwater fishing. Available in two sizes—the 7½-inch model and a magnum 10-inch option—this lure is built to spark surface activity and entice big bass even from a distance.

How you work it matters. It shines when you switch cadence: fish it fast for quick, popping strikes, or slow to provoke following fish. It performs with a straight wind or a walk-the-dog cadence, letting you adapt to water clarity, wind, and bass mood while covering water efficiently.

Key features that set the Bio Rat apart

• Versatile retrieves: fast or slow, straight wind or walk-the-dog.
• Easy-to-swap replaceable tail for quick field tweaks.
• Custom spinning feet deliver a pronounced splash and gurgling sound to attract distant bites.
• Tournament-grade black nickel BKK hooks for strong hold when you land a bite.
• Designed by Bill Siemantel of BBZ for topwater action with big bass in mind.

Size, color options, and how to choose

The Bio Rat comes in two sizes to match fish and water conditions: a 7½-inch version and a 10-inch magnum. Color options include Brown, White, Grey, Black, and Morning Dawn. Each shade is chosen to spark surface interest under varying light and water clarity, helping you tailor action to the day’s conditions.

Real-life uses and expectations

• Cover open water quickly with fast retrieves to trigger explosive surface hits.
• Pause and vary cadence to coax finicky bass from distance.
• Swap the tail easily to tweak action without leaving the fishable area.
• Rely on a loud splash and gurgle to draw bites from afar.

Notes on results

While the Bio Rat invites aggressive takes, success depends on water conditions, timing, and technique. Think of it as a powerful addition to your topwater toolbox, offering new ways to provoke bites and connect with big fish when conditions align.
