The Rapala Shad Rap has long been a favourite with anglers. The new Shad Rap Elite builds on that proven design and takes this classic to the next level.

This shad rap elite 55 combines premium balsa wood with modern heavy duty construction. The result is maximum durability and improved casting distance.

Its body shape resembles baitfish found world over. Rapala’s modern Elite foil finishes give it a strong, natural presence in the water.

Why anglers choose the Rapala Shad Rap

The action must be seen to be appreciated. It is highly responsive and changes from a wide wobble to a tight shimmy with retrieval speed.

Add a few twitches and the lure comes to life. That extra movement often helps trigger savage strikes from following fish.

On the cast, it gets to a depth of 3m. This makes the shad rap a versatile lure for covering different situations.

It blends a traditional crankbait with a jerk-bait seamlessly. That mix gives anglers more flexibility on a steady or worked retrieve.

Finished with sticky sharp Needle Point VMC 75 Series trebles, this lure is ready to go straight out of the packet.

The Rapala Shad Rap is suited to anglers who want proven action, durable construction, and an easy lure to fish with confidence.

Premium balsa wood helps deliver lively movement in the water. Heavy duty construction helps the lure handle regular use.

The Rapala Shad Rap also offers a natural baitfish profile. Combined with its finish, it presents a look predators want to attack.
