Rapala X-Rap Prop Topwater Lure

The Rapala X-Rap Prop is a premium topwater prop bait designed to trigger explosive surface strikes from aggressive bass. Combining Rapala's legendary X-Rap profile with dual counter-rotating propellers, it creates an irresistible combination of splash, noise, and surface disturbance that mimics a wounded baitfish struggling on top.

Whether you're fishing shallow grass, boat docks, laydowns, riprap, seawalls, or open-water schooling fish, the X-Rap Prop delivers exciting topwater action that draws fish from long distances. Fish it with a steady retrieve to produce a continuous commotion, or vary your cadence with short twitches and pauses to imitate an injured baitfish that predators can't resist.

Engineered for long, accurate casts and equipped with premium VMC® black nickel treble hooks, the X-Rap Prop is built to perform season after season. Its balanced design casts exceptionally well, allowing anglers to cover more water while targeting active fish feeding on the surface.

While developed primarily for freshwater bass fishing, the X-Rap Prop has also proven effective for aggressive inshore saltwater species like snook, redfish, and juvenile tarpon, making it a versatile addition to any tackle box.
