12 Volt Man Posted July 4, 2014 Report Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) Hi all, just wanted to share 2 pics of my recent PB smallmouth bass, caught on a rippin rapala 5/16oz white crankbait. I didn't have a scale, but it was very long and super fat. I figure over 4 pounds?? man, those rippin raps are HOT! -12 Volt Edited July 4, 2014 by 12 Volt Man
misfish Posted July 4, 2014 Report Posted July 4, 2014 SWEET. How do those rippin raps move through the water? Are they spastic? Was looking at them.
BillM Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 SWEET. How do those rippin raps move through the water? Are they spastic? Was looking at them. Very quick back and forth with the pivot point being the bottom of the lure. Typical lipless crankbait action.
12 Volt Man Posted July 5, 2014 Author Report Posted July 5, 2014 ^ agreed. what I really like about the rapala rippin raps vs all the other lipless crankbaits is that their finish holds up extremely well, they seem to cast even better for their weight and they seem to run a little more shallow than your typical lipless crank (as compared to say a rat l trap or rattlin' rapala) which allows you to fish shorelines and submerged weedbeds a little easier than with your typical lipless crank. I am a big fan of these baits. esp. the white colour. its dynamite. last fall I caught a huge salmon on the 1/2oz version, also in white. I'm hooked LOL
Musky or Specks Posted July 5, 2014 Report Posted July 5, 2014 Very nice smallmouth cograts on the PB
