jvii Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Hi all! Long time lurker, first time poster. I have had this Rapala (?) lure since the 90's and it was more of a good luck charm for me than a great producer of fish. Unfortunately, I lost it to a bad snag a little while ago. I would really like to find another, most likely on eBay i would guess, as I am sure they are discontinued at this point. For the life of me, I cannot remember what model it was. I have done a number of searches for "Rapala", "fat rap" "glass", etc, including an image search with the image below. i have come up with nothing so far. As you can see, the lure is clear, with silver/black spot coloring, and red eyes. It was a pretty deep runner too. Any ideas? Thanks! Quote

Super User scaleface Posted September 2, 2015 Super User Posted September 2, 2015 The craw works well for me in spring. It's the first craw lure I ever had. I've used a lot of different ones. The baby bass and smallmouth patterns have produced well for me to . Fire Tiger is another . 2 Quote
