Trigger Clear-Water Bass With a Thin Profile They Can’t Ignore
You pitch the G-Ratt Baits Thin Swim past a suspended smallmouth that’s already watched three other swimbaits glide by unaffected—then this one levels out, that subtle boot tail ticks like a nervous shad, and the fish instantly turns, follows, and crushes it before the bait drops a foot.

Frequently Asked Questions About the G-Ratt Baits Thin Swim

Does the Thin Swim fall horizontally?
Yes, it holds a level fall with a subtle tail tick—ideal for suspended or bottom-contact finesse retrieves.
