New Rapala X-Rap Sub-Walk

[openfire]

I was at BPS on the weekend and there was a fishing pro demonstrating this brand new lure by Rapala in the big fish tank. (hooks off of course)

The lure is called the Sub-Walk and it looks DEADLY.

This is a top-water bait that goes just beneath the surface. (Maybe 6" beneath)

I will definitely be trying this lure once Bass season opens. Check this out:

It should be since they were pimpin' the lure at BPS... Let me know if you see it for sale. I am interested to know how much $ it will be.

wasn't there... at least I couldn't find it.

and they ran out of curado's
i ended up not getting much... just a couple of normal xraps and some little cleos.

Hmmm... more X-Raps? Did you lose all to pike last year?
Hmm... more Little Cleos? Already itching for salmon? It's not end of summer yet.

This year, I sure am gonna toss spoons much earlier. Probably get atleast another months more out of it

Which baitcaster rod do you plan to get? or have? 1 piece? two? My cheap-o BPS brand 6'6" MH is nice that it is stiff but way too stiff for tiny fish I catch. Unless I get a good size fish,,, rod like to stiff on me and cause line to slack.

No haha... didn't lose any to teh pike last year.
I picked up a white ghost and hot pink one. Girlfriends colours. She tends to have the magic touch. Catches more fish than me all the time haha.

I lost quite a few Cleo's last year, and since they were on sale, I decided to stock up instead of paying regular during salmon season. They also always run out of stock on the 3/4 oz too haha.

I currently have this MH fenwick trigger stick or something like that. Does teh job, but wanted something better. I guess I'll wait and see what happens.

Le Baron's got the sub walk in a few weeks ago, was going to pick two of them up, but got another rod instead.
They were going for $8-$9 I believe.
