Excellent lure, top quality, June 20, 2011
This review is from: Rapala X-Rap Shad Shallow 06 Fishing Lures (Sports)
I am relatively new to using this type of lure. I recently moved to a different area, and am trying to change my fishing style to match the new techniques required.
This lure is great for slow to med retreive rates. Too fast and it seems to get too wobbly and fish stop biting. I have managed to catch some nice bass, a few big ones, and also caught many croppy and other small fish. The smaller fish are due to my fishing areas loaded with them, not that this lure necessarily attracts them best.
Lure sinks rather slowly, but seems to hover around the 5-6 mark without too much effort in the retreive to keep it there.
This is a great lure, relatively lightweight though, which impacts my casting until I get it dialed in for a lure of this weight. Performs well, they go after this lure, and once they bite, none have gotten off.
Great lure to add to your box.
