Rapala Maxrap Crankbaits MXR17 17cm 0.3–0.9m 28g Live Green Mackerel

Rapala MaxRap MXR17 — Maximum Distance, Maximum Action in Live Green Mackerel

The Rapala MaxRap (Maximum Rapala) MXR17 in Live Green Mackerel is a 17 cm, 28 g hard-bodied wobbler built for anglers who demand both distance and a lifelike presentation when targeting larger predators.

Long-Cast Performance with the MaXCast Mechanism

Inside the MXR17 sits Rapala's MaXCast weight-transfer system — tungsten balls shift to the tail during the cast, giving the lure an aerodynamically stable trajectory for exceptional distance. The streamlined body profile reduces air resistance further, so you reach the holding spots other lures can't.

Wounded Minnow Action That Triggers Strikes

Steady retrieves produce the classic Rapala "Wounded Minnow Action" — a tight, rolling wobble that mimics an injured baitfish and triggers the predatory instinct in pike, perch, asp, and sea bass alike. A sharp twitch sends the lure darting sideways in an erratic burst before it settles back into its natural swimming path. The holographic foil and lifelike scale detailing on the Live Green Mackerel finish add flash and depth that complete the illusion.

Choose the Right Variant

The MaxRap family spans three body lengths and a wide palette of colours, letting you match size and finish to the species and conditions at hand.

• MXR11 (11 cm, 13 g) — compact and light; ideal for perch, trout, and zander in smaller rivers or when a subtle presentation is needed

• MXR13 (13 cm, 15 g) — versatile mid-size option suited to mixed-bag sessions for perch, pike, and bass

• MXR15 (15 cm, 23 g) — steps up for larger pike and predatory sea fish in open water or bigger river systems

• MXR17 (17 cm, 28 g, running depth 0.3–0.9 m, oval line tie ring, Wounded Minnow Action) — the largest model in the range; designed for big pike, large asp, sea bass, and saltwater predators where distance and profile size matter; available in Live Green Mackerel and other finishes
