A striking Hot Steel color scheme covers this Rapala X-Rap XR10, blending a dark grey-blue back into pale yellow-gold sides and a bright orange belly. Weighing 1/2 oz (13 g) with a length of 4" (10 cm), this suspending minnow is a staple for targeting everything from pike and zander to salmon and sea bass. The clear diving lip is designed to reach depths of 4 - 6 ft (1.2 - 1.8 m) during casting or trolling. Examining the hardware, the lure features two robust treble hooks; the rear hook is dressed with red feathers and reflective flash. Gold-toned 3D eyes and a textured internal scale finish add a level of realism to the build. This particular item, identified by product code 6473, includes an internal rattle system for acoustic presence. It remains in superb condition, earning a 5/5 rating for its clean finish and intact components.
