Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala X-Rap Sureset, 2/5oz SB fishing lure #20273

A vibrant blue spine gives way to shimmering silver sides on this Estonian-made jerkbait, a classic look for the SB color pattern. This Rapala X-Rap Sureset, identified by product code 20273, measures 4 1/4" (11 cm) and weighs in at 2/5 oz (12.5 g). It is a floating, noisy model designed for both casting and trolling techniques. The diving depth ranges from 3 ft (0.9 m) to 8 ft (2.4 m), making it versatile for targeting pike, zander, and perch in various water columns. One of the standout physical features of this specimen is the feathered SureSet treble hook at the tail, which is complemented by a bright orange accent near the clear diving lip. The overall finish and hardware are well-maintained, resulting in a condition rating of 4/5.
