RAPALA SHADOW RAP SHAD 09

The Rapala® Shadow Rap® Shad SDRS09 (3-1/2”, 3/8 oz) delivers an action so realistic that big fish can’t help but strike. Designed to imitate a dying shad, this lure swims with a horizontal struggle and then slowly rises on pause, mimicking the last moments of an easy meal. Its larger profile throws off extra flash, letting you switch between finesse or aggressive retrieves with ease.

What makes it deadly is the "head-up" attitude, thanks to a fixed weight system that lets the lure rise slowly like a fading baitfish. With each sharp snap and slack-line pause, it even pivots and looks back, teasing nearby predators to attack. Whether you’re chasing bass or walleye, this lure stays in the strike zone longer, exactly where the monsters wait.
