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

Rapala X-Rap Saltwater SXR12 WHU – Versatile Slashbait for Coastal Predators

A proven performer for casting and trolling in saltwater environments, delivering the classic Rapala wounded-minnow action combined with aggressive slashbait strikes.

Dual-Action Swimming for More Strikes

The X-Rap Saltwater excels with two distinct retrieval styles. Steady reeling or trolling produces the signature Rapala wounded-minnow wobble that draws predators from a distance. Sharp rod twitches trigger the explosive Slashbait action—an erratic, darting movement that imitates a panicked baitfish and provokes reaction strikes from even cautious fish.

Built Tough for Demanding Conditions

Engineered to handle hard-fighting saltwater species, this lure features a textured translucent body with internal holographic finish and realistic 3D holographic eyes. The internal long-cast mechanism ensures excellent casting distance, while VMC Perma Steel hooks resist corrosion in marine environments.

Choose the Right Variant

The X-Rap Saltwater series offers two sizes to match your target species and fishing conditions:

• 12cm / 22g models (including WHU): Deeper running depth of 1.2–2.4 m, size #2 treble hooks – ideal for larger predators such as sea bass, bluefish, and similar coastal species; suitable for trolling and casting over deeper structure

• 10cm / 13g models: Running depth of 1.2–1.8 m, size #3 treble hooks – well-suited for lighter tackle, shallower water, or smaller target species
