Subject: rapala finally


they almost make something to purely targeting musky.speaking of size ,they finally move toward the good direction. that live perch is so nice and the action is unique kind of half glidebait and cranks

Most of these are for the European pike market, if I remember correctly. So, it naturally would apply to muskie too. The shipping will add a bit to the price of the lure. Still though, I'm digging these products too!

That's a nice bait. I would like one, or several. Now they nust need a super scatter rap.

I think that's all they are pushing it on, but we have the internet nowadays. I'm sure us on the state side could still purchase them...

Looks like a winner, wish they would do a super shadow rap shad as the slow rise would likely drive the muskies crazy.

Might just buy one of these when they become available. Has potential for a medium sized medium running depth twitch bait. Been waiting for them to come out with a bigger bait for pike - musky.

R&H has a really nice selection of custom Super Shad Rap colors as well, and have for a while. These Shadow Raps look great, but I still love the Super Shads for a simple, shallow crank. Can't beat it for brining new people into your boat and getting their feet wet in the musky world.

Placed an order on ebay.
Appears to be coming from a shop in Poland.
Lures priced at $17.99 USD each.
Shipping was not bad, only $11.99 total.

I threw the super shadow rap, i like it. It is a slow sinker. With the tiny lip it doesn't always grab water the same on a twitch making it do inconsistent things. I like that. Wished they would make a floating model too.

The swimbait has a TON of body roll.

HQ is in Finland. USA and Canada offices operate under the namesake but have different product assortments. You'll also see Rapala ice houses, augers and other "odd" items in Canada
