BassinWill301 Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 I just picked up one of the new Clackin' Raps from Rapala, and I want to know your guys thoughts on it? Have you tried it? How did it perform? http://www.rapala.com/products/luresdetail.cfm?modelName=clackin_rap&freshorsalt=Fresh Quote
DADto4 Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Looks very cool,keep us informed,if it works I'll prob. get one ;D Quote
BassinWill301 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Posted October 11, 2008 Yeah it has a very different sound to it too. It is a more high pitched than other rattles I have heard. Quote
Flywatersmallie Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 I'm kinda liking the look of those gliding ones too! Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted October 12, 2008 Super User Posted October 12, 2008 dude where did you get it? Quote
Speed Worm Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 I wish they made them in 3/8oz and 5/8oz. 7/8oz is too heavy for my taste Quote
BassinWill301 Posted October 12, 2008 Author Posted October 12, 2008 Dave, only the greatest tackleshop ever. : (sarcasm) Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted October 13, 2008 Super User Posted October 13, 2008 wow i'm suprised they had these new lures but didnt even have sebile magic swimmers. that ticks me off..... Quote
saltwater yaker Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Have you gotten a chance to uses theses lures yet? What store are you refering to? Quote
The Rooster Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Awww MAN!!! I'm gonna be gettin' a BUNCH of those!!! Those look awesome!!! But I'm right with ya on the 3/8 and 5/8 sizes. RAPALA!!! If you're readin' this, make some smaller ones!!! Quote
BassinWill301 Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 saltwater yaker, the store im talking about is just a local store near me. Quote
Stringjam Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I hope the lure design itself is better than the Rattlin' Rapala - - probably my least favorite vibe. Absolutely worthless for low-speed and drop fishing. Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted October 24, 2008 Super User Posted October 24, 2008 TW has them or should I say had.Seem to be sold out already. Quote
21farms Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 i have one arriving on monday...funny, when i ordered from TW just earlier yesterday morning, they had 9+ in stock. anyway, a lure similar in concept is the xcalibur one knocker which i have fished with and have had success. it also is 3/4 oz. but, because of the tungsten ball, it is still not as large in profile as the 3/4 oz. rat-L-trap. i don't mind the weight...in fact, i like that it helps me get the lure down quicker so i can start working it sooner.
