With a slight exaggeration of the unique Rapolla bait fish in distress swimming action, the jointed Rapala gets the undivided attention of otherwise distant trusted game fish. This Articulated, or broken Back Bait can be fished top to bottom. Swimming action at the slowest of speed makes this be the perfect choice after a cold front when fish are traditionally finicky in a negative feeding mode. Balsa wood construction with VMC black nickel hooks. Each his hand turn and Tink tested for perfect swimming action right out of the box.
