Rapala Shadow Rap Solid Shad Crankbaits 5cm 5.5g 0.9–1.2m GRS

Rapala Shadow Rap Solid Shad – Fast-Sinking Precision for Trout and Perch

An aerodynamic, heavy-bodied crankbait designed for long, accurate casts and aggressive hard-kicking action that stays true in strong currents.

Reaches the Strike Zone Fast

Built with a solid plastic body and heavy construction, the Shadow Rap Solid Shad sinks quickly to your target depth of 0.9–1.2 m and maintains position on the retrieve. The through-wire design adds durability when battling hard-fighting fish.

Irresistible Flash and Tracking

The hard-kicking swimming action produces intense side flash, enhanced by internal flash foils. Even in heavy current or during fast retrieves, this lure tracks true without rolling or losing its action—ideal for triggering reaction strikes from trout and perch.
