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.

This bait is immitating a crawdad crawling through the rocks. The rattles in the
lure immitate the claws of
the crawdad banging and clipping as it swims. They are casted out across a reef or
some type of structure that holds
fish. We crank them across the surface until we get clear of the rocks then slow
down the retrieve and let them sink a littel bit
but they sink, so you can't stop. They evoke a reactionalry strike from the fish,
it catches walleye and smallmouth and pike, catches
everybody. The fish can't stand to let if go by without biting it. It has a lot of
action , if the water is cold and the fish are in a negative
mood and aren't really active they don't touch these type baits. If the water's
warm and the fish are actively hunting, they work really
well!

I am buying these lures to replace one I lost last weekend. I am not sure
it is the same - but it looks like one I just lost.
I have never really fished with lures much before - always preferred live
bait; but I have moved to a location inland where I have been told lures
work well in the local lake.
The lure I lost got snagged but only after a couple of successful outings.
The very first cast with the lure I lost got me a barramundi about 60 cm, my
4 year old daughter was in the kayak fishing with me when I landed it in the
boat. She was screaming and panicking and in the confusion the fish managed
to flap its way back into the water.... 3 casts later I had another. The
next day I went back and landed the 73 cm barramundi pictured - it was 3rd
cast...soon after I lost the lure when it snagged probably taken under a log
by another fish.
