Rapala MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm 1.2m 20g Live Baby Sea Bass

Rapala MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm – Extreme Casting Distance for Saltwater Predators

When bass and other coastal species stay out of reach, the MaxRap Long Range Minnow delivers the casting performance you need. Its patented MaXCast weight transfer mechanism and aerodynamic profile send this 12cm minnow farther than competing lures—even against headwinds.

Reach Distant Strikes with Precision

Tungsten ball balancing combined with the aerodynamic body allows pinpoint accuracy at extreme distances. Whether you're targeting structure from shore or casting from a boat in challenging conditions, this lure gets where the fish are.

Versatile Action for Any Retrieve

The strong rolling action triggers aggressive strikes on fast retrieves, while the slow-sinking behaviour keeps the lure in the strike zone during pauses. Responsive twitching and low retrieve resistance make it equally effective for finesse presentations when predators are cautious.

Choose the Right Variant

The MaxRap Long Range Minnow 12cm is available in multiple finishes to match local baitfish. Select based on water clarity, target species, and prevalent forage:

• Live Baby Sea Bass – natural juvenile bass pattern; ideal for clear to slightly murky water when targeting European bass or similar species

• Live Blue Mackerel – mimics mackerel fry; excellent for open-water pelagics

• Flake Glass Ghost – translucent finish for gin-clear conditions and wary fish

• Flake Blue Sardine – sardine imitation; effective along coastlines with sardine presence

• Flake Anchovy – anchovy profile for Mediterranean and Atlantic bass fishing

• Flake Mullet – matches mullet fingerlings; reliable in estuaries and harbours

• Live Mullet – realistic mullet finish for shallow flats and structure fishing

• Live Ayu – ayu-inspired colour for Asian markets or experimental freshwater use
