bassguytom Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 I had some success with the scatter rap in the crawfish color. I would reel slow and then speed up to make it dart to the side. I would run it above the weeds before they got too high. With nothing to bump a squarebill off the action was as advertised and it worked for me. I don't know about a deep diving model I like to grind the bottom when deep cranking. Quote
WhiteMike1018 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 So apperently rapala is coming out with shallow running and deep running Scatter Raps. I haven't fished with one of the normal ones yet, but if the shallow runner does what it says I might be tempted! What do you all think? Can you link to the source of this information please? Quote
MacP Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 How do you fish your shallow shad raps and why are they better than a square bill crank? I've grown up around Rapalas but I don't throw shad raps. I was more of a rattling Fat rap and risto rap guy. I think it's the profile flat shape with the tight wobble. Quote

Justin Clark Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Pass. The Scatter Raps I do have didn't blow me away this past summer. Besides, everyone knows this summer's money wasting It Lure is the Live Target Bait Ball... Not a fan of that idea at all. I expected a better finish out of that bait then what it has. Quote
Super User Grizzn N Bassin Posted March 12, 2014 Super User Posted March 12, 2014 Just picked up my first scatter rap. Can't wait to use it. I think it dives 5 feet. A shallower diver would be awesome! Quote
TorqueConverter Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Just picked up my first scatter rap. Can't wait to use it. I think it dives 5 feet. A shallower diver would be awesome! Same here. I picked up the Scatter shallow in Bluegill recently. It's hard to believe that it is rated to dive to 5 feet. I'm still waiting for a big bodied scatter sub 1 foot crank. Quote
