The Rippin' Rap features a lipless, deep belly profile designed to crank, swim and rip. With its skinny sides this bait flutters on the drop. Hard vibrating action on fast or slow retrieves accented with loud, distinctive BB rattle system. Textured scales and gills with deep set 3D holographic eyes. Super easy to fish, the Rippin’ Rap® is perfect for pulling over or through grass, bouncing off timber and rippin’ through rocks. Long-casting with variable running depth, this one is just right for clear water where look is key or for fishing stained, dark water where just the right sound is essential. Fast piercing VMC® black nickel hooks seal the deal.

I use these lures on a quite big river here in the Netherlands to target different
species.
But most of all I use them for Asp fishing a relative new species here. It came from
eastern Europe but due to a new dug Canal between Donau an Rhine they were able to
swim all the way to here.
These Asp are great fish to target because they're fast and strike with great power.
Great fun on poppers and other shallow diving lures.
But probably they also have changed their feeding habits because from time to time
they feed at the bottom.
There is where we use the Rippin Raps for. We more or les jig them. But we also spin
them... Here in Holland we only can get the 7 or 9 cm version but they are quite
heavy.
Besides Asp we also catch Zander (Walley) and Perch on them. So it a universal lure
to use for us. We uses expensive Japanese lures (Rangvib from Bassday) before and
still do but they are like 25 dollars so the Rapala's are much more affordable!
Attached some of our river catches!

I want to do a test with this bait fishing for "bass" on the "trolling" using this
bait because it looks like a fish called "tetra".

I'm gonna use it for bass here in Sweden. But the season for bass is over
here now so I'll have to wait unti next year to use it.
