The Rapala X-Rap Saltwater series of lures takes the successful X-Rap formula and refines it specifically for saltwater fishing. These lures are designed to be effective in inshore angling along the coast. They are a valuable addition to any angler's arsenal.
Just like the freshwater versions, the X-Rap Saltwater lures are versatile and can be used with various fishing techniques. When casting, they can be aggressively ripped and jerked to create an erratic slashing action. Alternatively, they can be retrieved steadily at different speeds. The lures have an internal long-cast system that allows for excellent casting distance, enabling anglers to cover a large area of water at their preferred speed.
Boaters can also use the X-Rap Saltwater lures for trolling. By adjusting the speed and depth, they can mimic the classic Rapala “wounded minnow” action. This technique proves successful in attracting fish. The lures are equipped with durable VMC 3X Perma Steel treble hooks that can handle larger fish and resist corrosion. Additionally, they are meticulously hand-tuned and tank-tested, ensuring premium performance right out of the box.
