Rapala MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm 1.2m 20g FRST

Rapala MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm FRST — Extreme Casting Distance for Demanding Conditions

When you need to reach distant fish in challenging wind or surf, the MaxRap Long Range Minnow delivers unmatched casting performance thanks to its patented MaXCast weight transfer system and aerodynamic body design.

Reach Fish Others Can't

The patented MaXCast mechanism uses tungsten balls that shift during the cast, concentrating weight at the tail for exceptional flight stability and accuracy. Combined with the aerodynamic profile, this minnow flies farther than conventional lures in its class—a critical advantage when targeting wary sea bass or other coastal predators holding beyond normal casting range.

Versatile Action for Any Retrieve

Despite being built for distance, this lure excels in the water. The strong rolling action produces intense flash from the internal holographic foil and natural scale pattern. Work it aggressively with fast retrieves and twitches, or slow things down and let it sink enticingly on the pause. The slow sinking behaviour keeps it in the strike zone longer during hesitation retrieves.

Choose the Right Variant

The MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm is available in multiple colour patterns to match local baitfish and water conditions:

• FRST — versatile pattern suited for variable light conditions
