Rapala Shad Rap - $5.99

When Rapala was creating the Shad Rap, they wanted a crankbait that would closely resemble baitfish the world over, cast like a bullet, and work at a variety depths. Now considered by many to be the benchmark by which all other hardbaits are measured, the Rapala Shad Rap, constructed from the highest quality balsa wood, embodies all of these attributes, plus it delivers the legendary Rapala wobbling action.  Equally effective whether cast or trolled, it performs from ultra slow to super fast with now negative effects.  Available in several proven colors and a variety of models to target specific depths, each Rapala Shad Rap is hand-tuned and tank-tested, like all Rapala baits, to ensure it runs true right out of the package.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.
