Overview

When Rapala was creating the Shad Rap Series, they wanted a crankbait that would closely resemble baitfish the world over, offer an incredible action and cast like a bullet. Now considered by many to be the benchmark by which all other hard baits are measured, the Rapala Shad Rap 7 Crankbait, constructed from the highest quality balsa wood, embodies all of these attributes, plus they deliver the legendary Rapala wobbling action.  Equally effective whether you cast or troll them, they perform from ultra slow to super fast with no negative effects.  Available in several proven colors, the Rapala Shad Rap 7 Crankbaits are hand-tuned and tank-tested, like all Rapala baits, to ensure they run true right out of the package.

Comments: Caught my PB 7.75 lbs. on a #5 shad color.. that and the silver color are all you need for the lakes in my area. I always have one tied on year round. they always produce.

From: Unknown: 5/26/23

Comments: Outstanding lures with an effective profile. Caught my PB of 2.75lbs on a Demon sr5. I will be buying more.

From: Unknown: Tinley Park, IL 3/26/22

Comments: My favorite cold weather crankbait. Great in 40-55 water temperature. I prefer the shad pattern. Great on spinning gear. I prefer size 5

From: Unknown: 1/6/22

Comments: Started fishing the Shad Rap 06 in Bluegill and figured something out at my local lake. First, I weighted the bait with Suspen Strip material to make it almost suspend, with a slow fall. (Later changed it to a slow rise for when it bumps into structure) I sanded down the varnish a little to dull the bait as I'm using it in the Winter when bait loses some of it's color. Cast it out, found a grass line in 3-5" of water and reeled it into the grass. My lake is a sand bottom with a layer of silt and some matted and other grass. I'm not sure if they're hitting it when it contacts the grass, when I rip it out or when the bait stirs up the silt like a craw. It has been an effective weapon. I put a little stronger leader (12 lb) on it because, I'm basically trying to get it caught up. Luckily, I don't have any lay downs or logs to worry about. Yes, very lake specific but, if you can find this type of setup, it's a great technique in the Winter! Gonna tie on the 07 so I can get the bait down faster without wasting 1/2 my cast. Might even try a craw pattern. These things don't cast far but, with the Suspen Strips, they seem to go further. Hope this helps someone.

From: Rob: Galloway, NJ 12/9/21

Comments: This thing works great!! its a great cold water crank, I have been using it since febuary and have been hammering bass. Caught my personal best on this in Ikes demon color SR5 size.

From: Trevor: Sedalia, MO 3/19/21

Comments: its a great lure....it's what i caught my first bass on a size five purpledescent rapala shad rap.... that's how it started it all.now I can't fit any more lures in my tackle boxes!!!! I advise you to get one today!!!!!! get crawdad,silver,or shad!!!!!

From: Zach: Armada 3/4/21

Comments: Crawdad color has produced my best walleye days with numbers and quality trolling and casting. Great for bass too. Unique action. Love red for early spring get the markers out if you want different colors. BIGGINS

From: Howie F: Washington, IL 2/2/21

Comments: The best coldwater finesse crank in existence. Also good in any conditions where you have calm, clear water and bright bluebird skies. Yes it's light and doesn't cast well, even the 7, so it needs spinning gear with 6 to 8 pound line and a good rod for throwing light cranks. I change out the hooks to round bend gamakatsus as well. But I ALWAYS have one tied on for cold water in clear to stained water. Great walleye and trout lure too, anything will hit it that eats fish.

From: Tyler P: Grand Junction, CO 3/21/20

Comments: These are my fav cold water cranks. You can really slow crank these things. For my local rivers Live Pumpkinseed/Bluegill are my favs along with Crawdad for stained water. On lakes Helsinki Shad or Crawdad work well for me. My fav size  is 7 or 9. The get down there even though they are small.

From: Unknown - North Carolina 12/18/18

Comments: Like the bait but just way too light on a windy day to even attempt to cast against the wind and get any distance. Sure if you have the wind at your back all is good but that limits how and what you can fish. That being said I find that the quality is Good while it appears that the KVD Crankbaits quality has decreased having issues with eyes coming off and a few broken bills from normal use.

From: Lee - Connelly Springs, NC 4/19/18

Comments: Catches fish, however not the most durable. Both my #5 and #7 shad raps broke during the second day of use. The bill broke off on the #7 and on my #5 the balsa split making it not fishable. However, these lures catch fish! It's sad they are not the most durable. First cast I landed a 23 inch walleye! Bluegill and shad colors work best for me

From: Jake - Iowa 3/16/18

Comments: I caught my only fish of the day on the smallest size. The water was EXTREMELY pressured over the weekend and jigs & wacky rigs didn't work at all. However a shad rap in the vicinity of schooling large mouth proved to be the perfect bite sized snack to trigger a strike. the lethargic bait fish motion caused that fish EAT it. occasionally it needs tuned and that is difficult but otherwise it works great. Much better hookups than the kvd 1.5 crankbait.

From: Seth: USA 9/8/16

Comments: I remember when these cb's were first introduced in the 80's; the tackle stores couldn't keep them on the pegs! The subtle swimming action of these lures will produce in cold water when the bite slows down. I bought every color available in the 80's, and still use the lures today. The original shad pattern is the BEST color for clear lakes, but the silver back minnow works well too. A little lead tape on the lip or belly will help casting issues on windy days. You can swim it or use the lure like a jerk bait; smallies will slam em'!

From: John: Knoxville, TN 1/18/16

Comments: fish these hard late summer mornings... have had great success with them, SSR09 in bluegill... we had a LOT of small bluegill in this particular lake tho.. I think they spawned twice. Thing is, after awhile, I think I'm KVD and cast wild once in 45 casts, and have lost two in the same 20 yards. GREAT bait in any event, this is in a clear lake with mainly smallmouth BTW.

From: Ron: CO River chain

Comments: This is an awesome coldwater bait.  Slow crank this in the late fall and winter and you will catch big fish.  Last winter I caught a 4 or 5lber and my grandpa had one break off that was probably 7 or 8.  My favorite color is shad even though bluegill is the primary forage in my lakes.

From: Ethan: Charlottesville, VA

Comments: This lure literally made a fishing trip for us recently. We were fishing Northern Wisconsin lakes with 50-60 degree temps depending on depth and clarity and we wore them out on this lure. Smallmouth and largemouth (And 5 suspended walleyes that were an added bonus during bass fishing). No other bait needed. One of us made a switch to this (#5 Dark Brown Crawdad) after a rough first morning and pulled out a 3.5 lb smallie first cast. The rest of the weekend all of us used the #5 in Crawdad or Dark Brown Crawdad and we lit it up every day. My new go-to cold water bait!

From: Ryan: Minneapolis, MN

Comments: A number 7 Shad Rap is a must have bait on Shearon Harris Lake, NC in February and March.  Fish it with 8 pound test line, a Shimano Stradic 2500 reel, and a 7 foot medium light rod.  Use a fish n fool knot.  This set up is a fish catching machine.

From: Dan: Cary, NC

Comments: only a few things could make me happier then getting a select few of Ike's custom colores on shad raps "caugh...blue back herring, mardi gras, old school..caugh" anyway we can make this happen rapala?

From: Jonathon: TN

Comments: these are still some of the most versatile crankbaits on the market, fish absolutely kill them.

From: Matthew

Comments: One of the GREATEST and most versatile baits of ALL TIME, can pretty much catch any species with these, using the right sizes, etc... Speaking of that, I am lgad they added the 4 & 6, what they NEED is a size 11, in the 4/14 to 4 1/2 in range to represent BIG gizzard shard, bluegill, baby bass, perch, what have you. There is a HUGE size jump from the 9 to the Super Shad 13 at 5 1/2, would like a size gap filler in the deep diver and shallow.

From: Forrest: WV

Comments: Great for trolling Walleye's in shallower water. Even managed to get a 41 inch, 16 pound Pike into the boat with an SR5 (Perch). The lure does not stand up against big northerns as the lure was broken after that fish. But for anything under 10 pounds these lures will catch lots of fish. They are light and have a great action in the water. Would recommend this lure to anyone. When fish are not bitting I will pull out the SR5 Perch and it always catches.

From: Charlie: SK, Canada

Comments: iv had fish hit it off the top before i could even start moving it. perfectly imitates a shad great bait

From: CA

Comments: SR5 I have caught bass from way north on Lake Erie to way south in Florida water from 40 degrees to 90 degrees crystal clear water to coffee what else can I say. 

From: Andy: Columbus, Ohio

Comments: The Shad Rap 7 works great for catching suspended walleyes in the summer. The SR5 works exceptionally well at dusk when walleyes surface to feed on insects and shallow baitfish. Troll with a lot of line at 2 mph and the SR7 will reach depths of nearly 20ft. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quality crankbait.

From: Chris: MN

Comments: I recently purchased a shadrap 07 and took it out to the lake for a test. We weren't trolling for 10 minutes before I caught a nice large mouth bass. It is also great for casting. When ever we go to a lake, the lure I pull out of my tackle box most often is the Rapala Shadrap 07 for its ability to catch fish. I totally recomend this lure to anybody that doesn't have one.

From: Josh: Granite Falls, MN

Comments: The Shad Rap 05 and Shallow Shad Rap 05 are steady producers when larger crank baits just are not working. When retrieved very slowly, both are excellent winter cranking lures for bass with water temperature in the 40s. During pre-spawn with water temperature in the 50s, crank them over and through shallow weeds, pausing for an instant to let them slowly rise a bit when hitting cover, and bass strike them hard. IÕve caught largemouth bass weighing up to 5 pounds on these slim profile, 2 inch lures. Be sure to use a spinning outfit since they are very light, weighing a mere 3/16 of an ounce

From: Vince: Tucson, AZ

Comments: Three casts into this fantastic little lure in Shad color number eight, landed a four pound largemouth.  Lost it, so I am in dire need of another one, will be ordering soon.

From: Issac: Erie, KS

Comments: These are great crankbaits the vmc hooks are super sharp went out to wheeler lake and was killen it on the silver number 7 and the shad number 7 and the prices is pretty good will be getting more of that shad raps soon

From: Joesph: AL

Comments:  I was fishing Lake Hartwell and the water was 53 degrees. Everyone was saying crankbaits were working near the bank. I had a shad rap in shad color on my crankbait rod. It was overcast and about to start raining so I didnt have long to fish. I wasnt there for ten minutes and I caught the first and only fish. About two pound largemouth.

From: Chase: SC

Comments: This lure excels in cold water. This silent lure is best fished slow around rocks, weeds, and other fish holding cover.  It seems the slower the better.  It has a suductive tight wiggle that cold weather fish can not seem to resist. These lures are light weight for their size, which can make casting an issue. Use light line for best results. Best for waters from 4 to 10 ft deep.

From: Pao: B.S., SC

Comments:  I have used this lure for years, but not in the way most of you are.  The SR7 in Crawdad color is one of the best rainbow trout lures that I have ever used on the White and Little Red Rivers here in Arkansas.  Give it a shot when they are generating and you will see what I am talking about

From: Brad: Wynne, AR

Comments: Have had this lure in my box for years,tied the silver #7 on at the Occoquan River.Within a half hour,had 2 bass 1 channel cat and 1 white perch. Ordering more,great crank bait for fishing in 8 to 10 feet of water. Thanks Tackle Warehouse for the continued great service and my tackle box getting heavier along the way. Catch and Release...good fishing everyone!!!

From: Ken: Virginia

Comments: I've been using these for about two years, and love them. I have two sizes: one in the bluegill and one in the yellow perch. Landed a few bass, perch and a bluegill on the bluegill color, and caught a perch trying to school with the other one. All in all these are good lures: good action, love the colors I use and they get down to the depth and cover the water I'm targeting.
