Rapala Shadow Rap Fat Jack 4cm 3m 4g BG

Rapala Shadow Rap Fat Jack — Long-Casting Crankbait for Trout, Perch and Chub

The Shadow Rap® Fat Jack dives quickly on the retrieve and rises slowly on the pause, perfectly mimicking a fading baitfish that predators simply cannot resist.

Fast Dive, Slow Rise — Triggering Reaction Strikes

This compact 4 cm crankbait reaches its 3 m running depth rapidly when cranked, then floats back up with a slow, tantalising motion during pauses. This action imitates a dying prey fish and provokes aggressive strikes even from lethargic predators. Two internal glass beads add a subtle, natural rattle that draws attention without spooking wary fish.

Wire-Through Construction for Confident Hook-Sets

A full-length internal wire axis connects line tie to rear hook hanger, providing the strength needed to handle hard-fighting fish. Paired with two razor-sharp VMC® 7548 Black Nickel trebles in size #10, the Fat Jack delivers reliable hook-ups and solid fish control.
