Ima Rattlin' Roumba Wake Bait

The Ima Rattlin' Roumba is the result of taking one of the best wake/super shallow baits on the market and turning it into a noisy version. And it was done right by using a tiny hollow rattle as opposed to a deep knock type.  This bait is designed to work best when fished over shallow aquatic grass, such as milfoil and hydrilla. It’s also extremely effective around boat docks, lay-downs, brush piles, and standing timber.  The Roumba produces best results when fished with a medium heavy action, 7-foot rod. A monofilament or copolymer, 12-17 lb. test line will help produce the best action. Fish the bait with a slow, steady retrieve. Be sure to keep the rod tip up and get ready for a massive bass explosion!

Techniques - Surface retrieve: Position the rod tip at 11 o'clock with a slow medium retrieve creating a natural wake.  Sub-surface crank: A steady medium retrieve with the rod facing down will allow the Roumba to dive and swim 12-18 inches below the surface.
