Rapala X-Rap Haku Lures - Tackle Tuesday

This entry was posted on 3rd November, 2020 by Anna Cooper

True to its name, the X-Rap Haku is a fake baitfish seeking trouble and ready to rumble with the monster predators. Made to be tough for big fish and their nasty bites, the X-Rap Haku features Rapalas proprietary 3R System Titanium Release Rig with VMC Coastal Black hooks.

When the 14cm shad rigged for action, the hooks are positioned just like on a regular glide bait in the lures belly groove, out of sight and protected from weeds and snags. The Rapala lure also makes removing the hooks from the fish easier as the body of the lure is not in the way.

The X-Rap Haku can be used for different bait presentations whether its gliding action by either twitching with the rod or by using a stop and go retrieve or if it's faster turning side-to-side action you are after, twitch the rod with short pauses, a fast burn in between the stops mimics escaping baitfish.
