New Minnow Rap


Recommended Posts

Has anyone used this new bait yet? I suppose I will end up buying all the colors anyways but I would like to know if anybody has got a chance to try them out. They look like a really good bait.

Thanks

Bought one Yesterday. I bought the green back with white belly. I went down to my lake and casted it a couple times. Acts just like a regular shad rap. Mine dove deep and caught weeds. Guess I have to put on my wadders and go deeper. Walleyes will like them.

I had a bunch from Rapala that I used all last year before they were officially released. I had good luck with them. I trolled them on leadcore as well flat line. The wobble is very similar to a shad rap but it has the profile of a original floating rapala. I would call it a hybrid of the original floating and shad rap.

I had some last year as well and they worked well for me. I used them in the same situations that I'd use a #7 shadrap. They run about the same depths but give a bit longer profile and a little tighter wobble. IMO. They will produce fish and will give them something different then what they have seen. It is a Rapala and that right there makes it a bait you will want to toss or troll. I am not afilliated with Rapala or any of their other companys but I like the product they put out. My .02

I had good luck with them last fall in the shallows casting them on the rocks and slow retirive at night. Never used them in daylight since I dont see daylight fishing much late in the year. I now prefer the Taildancer though if the shdrap is failing.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
