Yep, I got a ton of them. I really like the Super Shad Raps. Wondering...do these lures have thru wire contstruction? I know, I can cut one up to see. However, it's a lot cheaper to ask you anglers that may know the answer to this question. Thanks, Tom

Can't say 100% for sure on the shad raps, but I saw a show once on how rapalas are made and they are through wire. My guess, based on rapala materials would be yes they're through wire.

Yes they are. Try weighting a Super Shad Rap (can produce an awesome lure) and you'll see.

Yep, you are right. I just cut one in half with a hacksaw. They are thru wire construction as are most Rapalas (from what I have heard). I also found out that some of their lures are plastic (ex. jointed shadraps).
