Rapala Original Floater

The Rapala Original Floater is still one of Rapala's most popular "go-to" lures. Whether you twitch it on the top as a surface bait, or retrieved as a shallow runner, the Original Floater delivers the wounded minnow action that others continue to imitate but can never duplicate. Constructed from balsa wood, it can float out of obstructions and snags, and its VMC hooks offer lightning fast penetration. Available in a variety of proven colors, the Rapala Original Floater continues to be irresistible to gamefish on every continent around the world.

Comments: I meet two guys that have caught 10lb bass on this old bait.One is mounted on his wall other guy released his fish. That is why this bait is a  legend. Try some if you never did. It is old favorite for pros and legend bait.

Comments: The gold and perch F11-13 Rapala Floater is deadly to those pre-spawn walleyes. Have caught some big boys with these lures upwards of 13lbs. Also a great smallmouth lure not so many largies caught with these baits but lb for lb id rather catch smallies any day

Comments: The original is still the best in my book, there is a reason so many companies make there jerk baits look just like the original floater in shape. They imitate the shape, but can't come close to the action, both on straight retrieves, and jerks. I've caught a ton of fish on these things. I have these, smithwicks, Bagleys, Rebels, and a megabass, and this baits beats them all hands down, add that to the price being less than 7 bucks(compared to 25 for a megabass). The lip never breaks, and even if the paint wears off(IF is the key word) it will still catch fish, I have one I got from my great uncle all the paint wore off, just a wood bait with a lip and hooks, no color at all, and I still would catch hundreds of fish on it.
