Pistol Pete - G-Ratt Baits

G-Ratt Baits Pistol Pete Glide Bait

The Pistol Pete from G-Ratt Baits is the compact powerhouse of the Pete family — a scaled-down glide bait with big-fish appeal. Don’t let its smaller size fool you: it’s loaded with strength and sound to pull strikes from bass, snook, and other aggressive game fish. Perfect for anglers who want the proven Pete action in a more manageable, bite-sized package.

Specs & Build

• Scaled-Down Design: A compact glide bait modeled after the Sneaky Pete, making it ideal for pressured waters or when fish are keyed on smaller forage.

• Hardware: Outfitted with 3X-strong treble hooks, rotating hook hangers, and premium split rings to stand up to brutal headshakes and runs.

• Rattle System: Weighted with steel bearings that produce a distinct rattling sound, adding extra attraction in stained water or low-light conditions.

Action & Presentation

• Natural Glide: Smooth, side-to-side action on a slow retrieve that mimics an easy meal.

• Erratic Retrieve: Speed it up or twitch the rod tip to create darting, unpredictable movements that trigger reaction strikes.

• Sound Advantage: The built-in rattle amplifies presence, helping call in fish from distance when visibility is low.

Target Species & Applications

• Freshwater: Largemouth and smallmouth bass, spotted bass, striped bass.

• Saltwater/Inshore: Snook, redfish, jacks, and other predators that crush smaller baitfish.

• Best Fished: In tighter quarters like docks, mangrove cuts, or nearshore structure where predators ambush smaller forage.

Why Pistol Pete Works

• Downsized profile fools pressured fish or those feeding on smaller bait.

• Heavy-duty 3X hooks and rotating hangers keep trophies pinned.

• Rattle chamber adds sound attraction to pull in bites when sight alone won’t do it.

• Carries the same proven G-Ratt glide action in a more versatile size.
