Where Can I Get A Nezuma Rat!? Or Something Close??? 2025


fishing user avatarJGBassinAL reply : 

I know this is the wrong forum but I also know that a lot more people frequent this forum so I am posting it on here. Mods can delete it if they need to. Wondering if any of you know where I can get a Nezuma Rat or anything close to it? Or just a good rat wake bait? Thanks!


fishing user avatarrippin-lips reply : 

The Johnny rat wakebait is pretty nice looking. The bbz1 rat that's coming out looks good too and seems worth a try for the price. Theres the Jerry Rago rat also. Mini ms slammer is kind of a rat style wakebait. I've seen the nez on eBay and SU for sale.


fishing user avatarJrob78 reply : 

Check out the CL8 Bait Possum or Baby Possum, depending on what size you want.  They are really nice baits and don't cost a fortune (like the Nezuma does.)


fishing user avatar1234567 reply : 

Nez rats can be found on bassaholics site from time to time.


fishing user avatarMarkH024 reply : 

Kincannon rats are nice baits.

How do you like the Jerry Rago rat if you used it? from the pictures ive seen they are pretty large but they look cool!


fishing user avatarSPEEDBEAD. reply : 

I prefer a wood rat over resin.  I also prefer anything over a Rago rat.

 

Just my .02

I've never used it. Just giving the OP some choices to look at.

Why don't you like rago rats? Just curious


fishing user avatarSPEEDBEAD. reply : 

Because the way I typically fish a rat, that particular brand doesn't fit my style.

 

Throw in the fact that they are made by Rago and well, yeah....:grin:


fishing user avatarrippin-lips reply : 

Hey at least he's honest haha.

Any good recommendations for the OP on a wooden rat?


fishing user avatarMarkH024 reply : 

Wayne,

What kind of pin or what do you use for a replacement pin for the tails on your swimbaits? Something that doesn't rust out...?

Which swimbaits?


fishing user avatarJGBassinAL reply : 

Thanks for the responses guys. Really looking for a jointed wooden rat that 5 or 6 inches not counting the tail. Anyone know of any?


fishing user avatarWRB reply : 

Take a look at Spro BBZ-1 rat video. The BBZ rat is plastic like most rats, good price point and should be available by now on TW.

Tom

PS, try a round wooden tooth pick to change tails.

Killer instinct weasel is about that size. I believe it's wooden but I could be mistaken. Lol I have one but yet to even fish it.

Just a general inquiry. I didn't know if you used just 1 type of pin or different depending on baits. 


fishing user avatarSPEEDBEAD. reply : 

Toothpicks on some, modified hitch hiker on some others.

 

Both seem to work fine.

My guess is you can order one here.

fishing user avatarDroppingshot reply : 

My local shop coyote bait and tackle has them. Might not be on their website. Coyotebait.com I saw the nezuma rats today when I went in.


fishing user avatarMaster Bait'r reply : 

Bettencourt makes a jointed rat that is actually covered by rabbit fur. It looks amazing and is much cheaper than most comparable baits.


fishing user avatarJGBassinAL reply : 

I talked with Clayton Bryant of CL8 Baits and he's building my rat this weekend! Thanks for the help guys!


fishing user avatarGinosocalbass reply : 

just wait for the BBZ1 rat from SPRO.  save your money. 

 

 

If you really want to get crazy, Id go with the Cl8 possum if you want something really big.    its much easier on the wallet and produces just as well.

 

 

Nothing against the Nezumma Rat, but its a bit overpriced to be paying for the nostalgia of having one.
