KraTToR Posted July 21, 2015 Report Posted July 21, 2015 I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm really impressed with the new Rapala Scatter raps. A guide I ran into while fishing the Kiwanis walleye derby turned me onto them and I can't say enough about them. I've had great success with the shad type on BOQ and Pigeon for walleye and excellent success with the Scatter rap cranks on Long Point for smallies. I haven't tested any of the other models (jointed, minnow, CD,etc) so please share.. The only downfall I've found is that the plastic bill that gives the bait its action does crack and break fairly easily.. Easy to fix with a touch of crazy glue that I carry in my TB anyways.
fishindevil Posted July 21, 2015 Report Posted July 21, 2015 yes they work great and i have had 1 break as well on a 2lb smallie....but i did get a few kawartha walleyes on it,if it was suspendidng it would be a wicked bait just my opinion tho...i am still trying them out
Big Cliff Posted July 21, 2015 Report Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) ask Paul what he thinks of them! He dropped mine in the water just to see what the action was like and wham LOL. I think his parting words were "guess I'm going to have to go shopping again" LOL.. BTW, Captpierre was the person that gave me my first one Many thanks again! Edited July 21, 2015 by Big Cliff
Steve Posted July 21, 2015 Report Posted July 21, 2015 broke two lips so far.... tackle shop gave me new ones.... maybe a bad early run?
KraTToR Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Posted July 21, 2015 Maybe they picked the incorrect poly carbonate for the lips.. As far as suspending I thought I saw a countdown version....
manitoubass2 Posted July 22, 2015 Report Posted July 22, 2015 Maybe they picked the incorrect poly carbonate for the lips.. As far as suspending I thought I saw a countdown version.... If i see a countdown version ill buy a bunch in minnow patter and gold/black. Action on these baits are awesome

manitoubass2 Posted July 23, 2015 Report Posted July 23, 2015 Miigwich! Just made me spend some cash lol
porkpie Posted July 23, 2015 Report Posted July 23, 2015 Xraps where the same for a few years when they first came out. Busted dozens of lips. Busted a pile of fish on them too!! Newer xraps don't seem to break nearly as much. Just what I need, another lure to buy.
Acountdeleted Posted July 23, 2015 Report Posted July 23, 2015 Shoot. I have one of these...... I just don't remember where I put it.
manitoubass2 Posted July 23, 2015 Report Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) Shoot. I have one of these...... I just don't remember where I put it.Check that Plano box, over there. You know, the one about 12 down that stack to the left and right beside the bigger stack? Yeah its in there???? Edited July 23, 2015 by manitoubass2
