Rapala X-Rap Saltwater Crankbait 12cm 1.2–2.4m 22g RHU

Rapala X-Rap Saltwater 12cm RHU – Triggers Aggressive Strikes in Open Water

This suspending hard lure combines the classic wounded-minnow wobble with an explosive slashbait action to provoke reaction strikes from wary saltwater predators.

Dual-Action Swimming for Maximum Appeal

Retrieve steadily for the signature Rapala wobble, or twitch your rod tip sharply to unleash the erratic slashbait break-out. This unpredictable movement imitates a panicked baitfish and triggers predatory instincts in species like sea bass, bluefish, and tarpon.

Built Tough for Saltwater Conditions

The textured translucent body houses internal holographic foil that flashes and shimmers through the plastic. VMC Perma Steel hooks resist corrosion in marine environments, and 3D holographic eyes add lifelike detail. Each lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested before leaving the factory.

Choose the Right Variant

The X-Rap Saltwater series offers two sizes and multiple colour patterns. Match your choice to local conditions and target species.

• 12cm / 22g / 1.2–2.4m depth (incl. RHU): Ideal for larger predators, trolling, and casting from boats or rocky shorelines. Suitable for sea bass, bluefish, tarpon, and similar species.

• 10cm / 13g / 1.2–1.8m depth: Better suited for lighter tackle, shallower flats, and smaller target species.

• Red Head UV (RHU): High-visibility UV pattern effective in low-light conditions and murky water.

• Natural patterns (Anchovy, Pilchard, Silver, Baitfish, Mangrove Minnow): Best in clear water where baitfish imitation matters.

• Bright UV colours (Wahoo UV, Hot Pink UV): Stand out in deeper or turbid water.
