Introducing the Rapala X-Rap Shad - Fishhound - 05-16-2007
[size 1]Prepare to be blown away by the latest evolution of the Rapala family: the new
X-Rap Shad.
The revolutionary X-Rap Shad combines the tight action of a Shad Rap with the extreme characteristics of Rapala's most popular and recognized X-Rap line of lures. The X-Rap Shad features a translucent body with internal scale patterns and displays a holographic foil appearance that will mesmerize any species of fish.
With an internal long-cast mechansim to ensure ultimate castability and incorporated features like suspending action and feathered tail hook, the<br />
X-Rap Shad provides anglers with options to match specific fishing styles, weather conditions and species. Put simply: this lure makes high definition TV seem boring.
"On the cast or on the<br />
troll, the Shad Rap<br />
action paired with the<br />
characteristics of the<br />
X-Rap creates a<br />
one-of-a-kind action"<br />
-Mark Fisher
The X-Rap Shad is available in two sizes and 15 color patterns. One size is 2-1/2 inches long with a swimming depth of 6 to 11 feet, and a second is 3-1/8 inches in length with a swimming depth of 7 to 10 feet. The X-Rap Shad color patterns include Purpledescent, Yellow Perch and Hot Steel that will surely entice fish anytime, anywhere. [/size]

Fishhound have you tried them yet? I do like the rapala line, but have had mixed results with the X-rap. Got them to work this past March on schoolies, but have yet to get a bass on them.
