Rapala Precision Xtreme Pencil EXO 12.7cm 26g Tarpon

Rapala Precision Xtreme Pencil EXO 12.7 cm / 26 g — Walk-the-Dog Surface Action for Big Predators

The Rapala Precision Xtreme Pencil EXO (Exotic) is a hard-body topwater pencil built for anglers who target large, aggressive predators at the surface. At 12.7 cm and 26 g, this is the heavier, longer configuration — engineered for distance casting and demanding conditions.

Dual-Frequency Sound That Reaches Distant Fish

Inside the lure's durable plastic body runs an internal rail along which a sliding weight travels during the retrieve. This Dual Frequency Knocker alternates between high and low tones as the weight shifts, producing a layered acoustic signal that draws predators in from a wide radius — not just fish close to the lure.

Long-Cast Design with Walk-the-Dog Action

The sliding internal weight also acts as a casting ballast, shifting to the tail on the forward cast for exceptional distance. Once the lure lands, a rhythmic rod-tip cadence brings the Walk-the-Dog side-to-side walk to life. The wire-through construction, robust split rings, and VMC 7548 Black Nickel treble hooks ensure the lure stays together under the full force of hard-fighting species.
