Rapala Flash-X Skitter 22cm 33g — Needlefish-Imitating Topwater Action for Saltwater Predators

Built to soar and skitter across the surface, the Flash-X Skitter perfectly mimics the needlefish — one of the ocean's most hunted baitfish. Cast it far, crank it fast, and watch predators explode on this irresistible topwater lure.

Extreme Flash for Maximum Attraction

The tapered prismatic body features a metalized coating that generates intense flash above and below the waterline. This unique design also acts as a stabilizing keel, keeping the head up during aggressive high-speed retrieves for a consistent, enticing skittering action.

Built to Handle Big Fish

A durable wire-through construction ensures this lure withstands the punishment of powerful saltwater predators and heavy drag pressure. Premium VMC® 7556 3X Ti-coated treble hooks (#4 & #2) provide reliable hooksets and corrosion resistance in marine environments.
