Weighing in at 12g (2/5 oz), this specimen showcases a vivid orange-red belly set against a dark olive-green back with detailed black scale patterns. This Rapala Jointed Shad Rap, cataloged under product code 7401, is a 7cm (2 3/4") Finnish-designed suspender suited for both casting and trolling techniques. Its deep-diving clear plastic lip is engineered to reach depths of 7–15 ft (2.1–4.5 m), effectively putting it in the strike zone for predators like zander, pike, or asp. The two-part body construction allows for distinct motion during retrieval compared to a traditional one-piece lure, while the dark eyes with yellow pupils provide a classic visual trigger. This particular lure is unused, maintaining a 5/5 condition with sharp black nickel treble hooks and an original split ring mounted on the bill. Anglers often reach for this model when they need to target fish holding in mid-to-deep water columns, particularly when targeting species like perch, salmon, and trout.
