Frequently Asked Questions
How do I fish Rapala Rippin' Raps for Walleye in Open Water?
The lipless crankbait is a weight-forward lure that falls rapidly and has a loud rattle. Model sizes 05 (2 in.), 06 (2 1/2 in.), and 07 (2 3/4 in.) are ideal for walleye fishing in open water with a spinning rod, like a medium power one with an extra fast tip. FishUSA Pro Staffer Tony Roach likes to match a 6 lb. braided line and a fluorocarbon leader. The fluoro leader is abrasion-resistant and helps to prevent the back hook on Rippin Raps from catching the braid when jigged vertically. For casting methods, pitch a Rippin' Rap and let it fall to the bottom. Work the lure back by alternately ripping and letting fall and sit on the bottom momentarily. Roach states this method gets walleyes to hit either on the fall or when a Rippin Rap lays on the bottom. You can also vertical jig, use a trolling motor, or drift Rippin Raps.
Are Rapala Rippin' Raps good for ice fishing?
Absolutely! If the baitfish in your area matches the 05 - 07 model sizes, go ahead and use them for ice fishing. Some prefer using the 05 models or even the smaller 03 and 04-sized Rapala Ultra Light Rippin' Rap. Don't be afraid to let 'em rip to get their loud rattle working to call in walleye. Let the Rippin' Rap fall if you see fish on the bottom, keeping it away from walleyes with a short twitch upward. Keep working the bait. Putting a minnow head on the front treble hook for scent appeal is said to be effective when ice fishing for walleye with Rippin' Raps.
How do you catch bass fishing with a Rapala Rippin' Rap?
Since their introduction, anglers have caught largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and pike with the vibrating Rippin' Rap lure. They are perfect for a steady retrieve over or through grass, bouncing off timber, or ripping through rocky structures in both clear and stained water.
