Rapala Jointed Shad Rap 04 Fishing Lures (Baby Bass, Size- 1.5)

Product Description

This plastic version of the legendary Shad Rap is more than just a wounded minnow. The rhythmic rattles send out the "distressed minnow" signal loud and clear for all to hear. Seasoned anglers know that sometimes it takes a slight exaggeration of the lure's unique baitfish-in-distress behavior to get the undivided attention of an otherwise disinterested fish.

The first day I used this jointed Rapala on the Potomac River in Washington, DC, I caught a 14 inch Smallmouth bass. I also caught 1 or 2 smaller ones. It's a great bass lure, and at this size (04) it is great for smallies. I plan on buying a few more in the spring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jointed Shad Raps - A Tackle Box Essential, February 16, 2011
By 
I have fished with regular Shad Raps for over two decades (they catch fish), but only recently tried a jointed Shad Rap on the advice of a fellow fishing buddy). I found the jointed Shad incites more strikes (especially for bass and Northern Pike) than the regular shad rap. The jointed tail sends out vibrations that mimic an injured minnow (easy prey for a predatory fish). You can feel these vibrations in the line as you reel in the lure. This jointed shad will dive about 8 feet with a retrieve, but can also be weighted for a deeper retrieve along drop-offs. My favorite color is the silver variety. The lure is well-designed, sturdy, and hooks are sharp trebles. Line ties on the lip ring (for northern pike use a steel leader about 8 inches long). Deadly on bass, trout, Northern Pike, and Walleye (trolled at evening or night in the shallow waters).

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite new lures., June 20, 2011

I am relatively new to using this type of lure. I recently moved to a different area, and am trying to change my fishing style to match the new techniques required.

This lure is great for med retreive rates. Too fast and it seems to get too wobbly and fish stop biting. Too slow and it doesnt seem to attract them as well. I have managed to catch some nice bass, a few big ones, and also caught many croppy and other small fish. The smaller fish are due to my fishing areas loaded with them, not that this lure necessarily attracts them best.

Lure sinks quickly, but seems to hover around the 3'-4' mark.

This is a great lure, relatively lightweight though, which impacts my casting until I get it dialed in for a lure of this weight. Performs well, they go after this lure, and once they bite, none have gotten off.

Great lure to add to your box.
