Rapala X-Rap Haku Jerkbait Live Perch

Rapala X-Rap Haku — Pike Jerkbait with Weedless Rig Protection

The Rapala X-Rap Haku is a purpose-built hard jerkbait for pike, combining a gliding action with a clever belly-groove hook system that keeps you fishing through heavy cover.

Weedless Design That Still Hooks Solid

The hook rig rests tucked inside the belly groove during the retrieve, shielding the hooks from weeds, submerged branches, and snags. On the strike, the rig releases instantly from the body, giving you direct, unobstructed contact with the fish and keeping hook-up rates high even in weedy or woody environments.

Versatile Gliding Action for Pressured Pike

Work the X-Rap Haku with sharp rod jerks for a fast, wide side-to-side dart, or use a Stop & Go retrieve to draw out long, tantalising glides. A quick wind between pauses imitates a fleeing baitfish perfectly, giving you two distinct trigger actions in one lure to adapt to the mood of the fish.

Choose the Right Variant

All variants share the same 14 cm body and 74 g weight with size 3/0 hooks, differing only in colour. Choose based on water clarity and light conditions:

• Live Perch — natural perch pattern; excellent all-round choice in clear to lightly stained water where pike are feeding on perch

• Battle Scars — muted, battered baitfish look; good in clear, high-pressure venues

• Hot Tiger Pike — high-contrast tiger stripe; effective in coloured or turbid water

• Bright Parrot — vivid attractor colour; strong choice in murky water or low-light conditions

• 5W-50UV — UV-reactive finish; stands out at depth or in poor visibility

• Twilight Zone — dark, subtle profile; suited to overcast days and stained water

• Scaled Roach — realistic roach imitation; versatile natural option where roach are prey

• Blue Ghost — translucent blue; works well in clear water with bright light

• Artistic Burbot — burbot-inspired pattern; good in deep, cold-water environments

• Smelt On The Beach — smelt imitation; effective in northern fisheries and brackish conditions

• Additional colour variants available without specified colour attributes
