The result has been amazing. Rapala lures come in many different sizes, shapes, and colors. Some of the lures wobble and rattle in the water, some have a see through glass body that emits light, some have a tight swimming action, and some transmit sound waves. With Rapala lures you will be ready for any situation. Some of the lures are great for reaching fish lurking in hidden areas. Rapala lures have been around since the 1930s when a fisherman in Finland discovered that big fish like to eat small wiggling fish so he created a lure out of cork.
Rapala lures are now made from Balsa wood whose tree grows best under the conditions found in rainforests, with Ecuador being the largest exporter. Balsa wood is one of the lightest varieties of wood to be found while it is also remarkably strong. This combination makes the wood perfect for lures. The scale detail on Rapala lures are so life like. They are hand tuned and tank tested to ensure that all their lures embody the fish catching action that Rapala is so well known for.
These lures are built to last and can easily withstand bumping against rocks and other hard terrain, bouncing against the bottoms of rivers and streams, and ripping through thick weeds and other brush. The sound mechanisms in Rapala lures heighten the curiosity in fish so these sounds combined with the color and wiggle and wobble and other actions are sure to attract a large amount of fish. Your day of fishing is certain to be a thrilling one as you capture many big fish with your Rapala lures.

Rapala lures are one of the most realistic looking lures you should buy. An ingenious fisherman made the first Rapala lures in the 1930s. After observing the habits of fish in the waters of Finland, he realized that big fish eat wounded little fish.
He created a lure that wiggled and wobbled in the water and he started catching more and more fish. And to this very day all Rapala lures that are made are hand tuned and water tested to make absolutely certain that they swim in perfect harmony right from the box. In actual fact no lure holds more records for the largest fish caught than Rapala lures. These lures are made from Balsa wood , Balsa trees are found primarily in Central and South America.
More world record fish have been caught with Rapala lures than any other in the world. Fish find these lures so tempting because of the work and dedication that goes into manufacturing them. Representatives from Rapala spend time with fisherman asking them questions and getting their take on the reasons a lure works well.
Rapala lures come in every form and dimensions imaginable and are terribly sturdy. Some styles are made to bounce off rocks, bump against the base of lakes and streams, and rip through thick weeds. Some styles will deliver an extraordinary distance in each cast. And some are essentially designed with a sound chamber that broadcasts sound and vibration. Sound is understood to heighten curiosity in fish , so any sound combined with a wiggle will sound like a dinner bell to a fish.
Rapala lures are made to tempt and torture fish so that a fish will have a particularly tough time not taking the bait. Some of the lures come fitted with steel rust resistant hardware so they are going to keep and perform for a very long time in saltwater. Rapala lures are superb for ice fishing too. Rapala offers a lure which will swim in tantalizing circles straight in the middle of deep game fish. They also made a lure with a slow circle down action. Rapala lures have recorded a record for catching the largest fish on each continent in the world excepting Antarctica. It is hard to go wrong with Rapala lures! .

As a fishing "greenhorn" , I am currently fishing in a brackish lake infested with tonnes of fish! Striped bass, gaspereau ( alewife) , salmon, speckle/rainbow/brown , perch, and flounder. There are no pike, walleye or lake trout in this lake. I am interested in knowing some good ideas for bait. So far I have : Nightcrawlers on a treble hook, rapala crank lures, power bait, synthetic and dead preserved minnows, powerbait dough and eggs (minimal success though) and Yum! crawfish. Any suggestions on what else I could use? I bought some rooster tails and meeps lures to try out, PS (i’m trying to lunk a big bass, as a world record bass was caught in this area before). I’d like to try wet flies with a weight on a spincast rod. Any suggestions? The area is North-Eastern Cape breton, Canada.

I was fishing off of a creek feed today in a river (6 feet deep, narrow width) and had a 24inch trout snap at my floating cricket crankbait (2"). He hit a couple of times but not enough to get a hook set. He only hit when I slowed the presentation to a near stop (twice as slow as the slowest rotation you can get on a floating rapala). It hits about 4-5 inches from the surface of the water but it just either isn’t taking my lure completely or the hooks are two small (size 12’s). Any suggestions on what lure to switch to? I could be wrong, but I think a skitter pop or topwater popper wouldn’t get down the few inches to attract the fish to hit. I am chasing a giant trout here, I appreciate any tip you can give landing this bad boy. He came within 5 feet of me chasing my slowly reeled in cricket lure and didn’t notice me. I am very slowly crawling this lure to get the fish to hit, stretching line with one hand and slowly moving it in the other. It’s the only way it’s hitting.
redheat – thanks – when they defend their territory, will they just play with the bait or completely take it?
Well, you don’t mention what kind of trout this is and what kind of water you’re fishing. Minor points, but it could be useful info.
I agree with Red — it could be just aggressive behavior with no bite. If you’re fishing in a stream for rainbow trout, then you could be encountering spawning fish who are trying to keep their redds clear of egg predators, which can include minnows, crawfish, sculpin, and other trout. Even if the rainbows are staging to spawn somewhere upstream of you, they will exhibit the same "chasey" behavior, where they chase and butt and nudge at lures without actually biting down. I once saw a big brown chase a little minnow lure into an inch or so of water — his caudal fin and back were well out of the water and he just kept after it. Whenever I fish during spawning times, I get a higher proportion of foul-hooked fish, too. If this is a spawning fish, it may be just a matter of chance as to whether the fish puts some mouth parts on the lure. It also means that you don’t have all summer to catch him — he’ll be gone within a week or even a few days.
If the fish is actually mouthing the lure, then you’ve got to calm down a little when setting the hook. With small fish, a lure or fly can be in and out of the fish’s mouth in a second, so you have to move fast but set lightly. With a big fish, you do sort of the opposite — move a little slower and set harder. I have a friend from Australia who told me his rule for fish over 18" is to say "God save the Queen!" before setting the hook. Even if you say it really fast, it can help prevent misfires.
I would definitely switch lures. Don’t worry so much about finding THE ONE right lure, just try them all. However, I would try something that swims lower and slower and looks like a baitfish. Shiny or red coloration may help. Spawning redds are down in the gravel — that’s the territory spawning a fish is defending. Staging fish hold close to the bottom to rest and feed. So, in either case, whether this big boy of yours is hungry or angry, you want to get right up in his face, and that means going lower.
