All the life-like scale detail and selections from the incredible patterns of the original X-Rap. The massive diving-lip takes the X-Rap Magnum deep...unassisted. Nothing to hinder the action. These run perfect right out of the box, no wasted time tuning. They can be run up to 13 knots for big game fish worldwide.

We use the lures for trolling around the shores of Israel, sailing at 5-6
knots, fishing mostly at a depth of 30-35 meters. And on a side note... we
are a bit crazy and actually fish from a sailing boat and not a motor one,
having fun with all the turns while dragging 5-6 lines, yet it makes life
much more interesting!
As for the lures, personally, I started with Yo-Zuri lures till i tried
Rapala, I now hardly use anything else, the Rapala are so much better to
the point I cannot understand how they are priced at the same range.
Talking mostly about the hooks quality where VMC are far better than any
other hook I used. Next there is the reliability as, at least from
our experience, it is more common to see a Yo-Zuri lore swimming off track
pulling to one of the sides than a Rapala one.
The ones working the best, at least for us, are the X-Rap Magnum,
more specifically the Gold-Green, the Silver and the Blue-Sardine all works
great depending on the condition of the sea. In addition we found out the
Albacore seems to love the Purple-Mackerel even if this color hardly catch
anything near the coast.
in terms of fish, the most common fish around here are
the Spanish Mackerel, the Little Tunny, the Grouper and the Puffer. Sizes
are normally at the one to two kg on average with the rare cases of up to
20kg pieces. In addition of the above at this time of the year and up to
mid July we have some fun with schools of Albacore and Bluefin Tuna.
As you probably noticed, I can keep on talking about fishing for hours....
hopefully I answered your question :-)

I use this lure for musky but sometimes walleye bite on it at high speed (5 miles )

I pull these plugs for walleye in the Columbia River. Big plugs catch big fish.
I've caught them on the XRMAG30s later in the summer.
