Description
Built around the popular and proven original Shad Rap, the Elite consists of premium balsa wood, a profile shape of the natural shad baitfish, and the swimming action of a wounded minnow.
Equally effective cast or trolled, performing from ultra-slow presentations to super-fast without fail. Slightly heavier than the original, the new Shad Rap Elite can be cast longer allowing this bait to be fished in harsher conditions or on a bait cast. Forged, flattened, one-piece, through-wire construction improves durability as it battles all species around the world.
Premium, high-definition color patterns with a metallic gilded face give the Shad Rap Elite a total game-changing, ultra-natural look.
This new lure is the perfect freshwater multi-species bait. It catches everything – from feisty panfish to monster muskies and everything in between. It’s secret: the Classic Rapala wounded-minnow action that remains consistent whether retrieved nice and slow or super-fast.
Depending upon the type of fishing line used and retrieval speed, the No. 55 runs 8 to 9 feet deep, and the No. 75 runs 9 to 11 feet.
The lure features two sticky sharp VMC® Inline Hybrid Treble 2X hooks and heavy-duty split rings.
