RAPALA SHAD RAPALA 07 2-3/4IN - GOLD

The Rapala Shad Rap 07 is a legendary crankbait trusted by anglers worldwide for its realistic swimming action, premium balsa wood construction, and incredible versatility. Sized at 7 cm, this model delivers a slightly larger profile that perfectly imitates mid-sized baitfish, making it a top choice when targeting bass, walleye, pike, and trout.

The Shad Rap 07 is known for being highly responsive, even at slow retrieve speeds, thanks to its lightweight balsa body and precisely tuned lip. Whether you’re casting or trolling, the lure produces a tight, natural wobble that consistently triggers strikes—even from pressured or wary fish.
