August Saltwater Lure of the Month: Rapala X-Rap XR12 Lures





August Saltwater Lure of the Month: Rapala X-Rap XR12 Lures

The Rapala X-Rap is the dream lure of the 21st century. It is where technical innovation meets Rapala fishing smarts to create a lure like nothing that has hit the water before.

Its premium finish includes prominent scales and lateral line on the fuselage to capture and flash light like a beacon. This Rapala slashbait cuts, darts and slashes its way through the water. Intended for trout and panfish, with an internal long-cast system built in, fishing the X-Rap XR12 will get any angler's adrenaline pumping.
These are suspending baits, whose natural buoyancy suspends the lure during pauses in the retrieve. 


Suspending X-Rap® Saltwater lures are designed to be cast or trolled and display the X-Rap Attitude these baits are known for. Built to withstand saltwater fisheries with Perma Steel 3X hooks, these baits can be cast or trolled. Rip ‘em for xtreme, erratic Slashbait® action or troll for classic Rapala ® “wounded-minnow” action. Prominent scales and lateral line, internal holographic foil for optimum flash combine with internal long-cast system and 3D holographic eyes to create the ultimate fishing lure. Hand-tuned and tank-tested for premium performance right out of the box.

Additional features of these baits include the following:
  • Flash foil teaser tail simulates the flash and movement of live forage
  • Premium Pyramid Point hooks
  • Internal long-cast weight system with large tungsten rattle mechanism
  • Stainless steel through-wire construction for superior structural support
  • Super strong, rust resistant split rings
  • 3D holographic eyes
  • Internal holographic foil for optimum flash
  • Textured translucent body for life-like presentation
  • Slashbait action has hard-cutting, aggressive, darting action
