And the world’s never seen anything like it.
The “X” stands for Xtreme, as in Xtreme attitude and adrenaline-pumping. The lure cuts, darts and slashes its way through the water, then comes to a roll at rest and suspends to trigger strikes.
It catches fish at such an accelerated rate, anglers may be tempted to taste it themselves, curious as to what makes it such a delicacy.
Our recommendation is to leave that for those that breathe through gills.
“The X-Rap is the ‘dream lure’ of the 21st century,” says Mark Fisher, director of field promotions for Rapala. “It combines technical innovation and Rapala fishing know-how to create a lure like nothing that’s hit the water before.”
The X-Rap is suited for multi-species angling, from freshwater to in-shore applications. “Dangle one in the infamous spot where the ‘one that got away’ escaped,” says Fisher. “You won’t miss it again.”
The X-Rap is the perfect size, shape and 3-D dimension of a minnow-bait. It features a textured translucent body and a holographic foil applied to the interior for flash.
Internally, the heart of the X-Rap is embodied by Rapala’s own non-lead internal long-cast weight transfer system and oversized rattle mechanism. The thru-body harness adds stability to the structure and guarantees that the fish will be brought all the way back to the boat. All X-Raps have heavy-duty split rings to match their aggressive action. The saltwater X-Rap features even stronger split rings and PermaSteel 3X hooks.
