Hooked on Rat Lures
Nothing detonates a surface like a bass crushing a rat. When my beloved Moreau Rat vanished from shelves, I refused to quit — I started designing in 2020 and set out to create the ultimate replacement.

Giant bass on a prototype
Before Tackle Warehouse, before ABS, before the 3-packs — a prototype got crushed by a giant. That fish is why this site exists.
“GIANT bass caught on prototype rat.”

A journey of rats 🐀
Learned the Craft
Blender3D tutorials and an entry‑level printer turned sketches into plastic overnight. Watching pixels become a lure was addictive.
Prototyped Relentlessly
Screen‑perfect doesn't equal water‑perfect. After each 17‑hour print I'd sprint to the test tank—some floated true, others flopped, every one taught a lesson.
Explored and Shared Designs
Got in touch with the maker community and started sharing lure designs while continuing to iterate in public.
Experimented Everywhere
Bathtub trials, dawn reservoir sessions, endless tweaks to joints and design. Dialling in that seductive swim proved half science, half art.
Connected & Collaborated
Linked up with veteran builder SacPig on Instagram. Together we birthed Mischief series of precision‑tuned rats built to smash personal bests.
Cooking at SacPig Bait Co.
Now we're scaling production, serving a fresh menu of custom rats, topwaters, and accessories — each designed to put giants in the net.
Live on Tackle Warehouse
The rats have officially hit the big leagues. In 2025, SacPig baits launched at Tackle Warehouse — the world's premier fishing tackle retailer with more retailers coming soon.
Go Anywhere
Introducing the Go Anywhere SwimFrats with an industry-first TPE-lock hook attachment and an ultra-durable TPE body for navigating the gnarliest environments where fish thrive, without worrying about getting hung up.
Landing Big Fish
The lineup of rat lures has been extremely well received by largemouth bass — consistently landing personal bests, putting smiles on anglers’ faces, and proving to be an absolute joy to fish. Bass really do love rats, and the journey continues.
The long garage story — printers, Thingiverse, and how this became SacPig — lives on the About page.
