Rapala X-Rap Peto 14 is a hybrid predatory fishing lure that combines a hard ABS body with a soft PVC tail. This gives you the tight control of a hardbait and the live action of a softbait in one bait. This version is slow sinking and sinks nicely horizontally. This makes it strong in cold water and on days when predatory fish have difficulty responding.
The wide tail gives a clear tail-kicking action, while the body rolls along slightly while swimming. This gives you extra movement, flash and pressure in the water. The soft tail is securely fastened with a 6-point stainless steel plate, so it fits nicely and stays firmly in place while fishing. A spare tail is included in the package.
With its 14 cm length and 39 g weight, this is an interesting bait for shallow areas and active search fishing. Its swimming depth of about 0.5 – 1 m makes it useful along edges, above vegetation and over embankments where predatory fish hunt. The two VMC Coastal Black trebles in size 3 match the profile of the bait nicely.
In terms of color choice, you’re also right with Blue Ghost | Halloween | Hot Tiger Pike.
Blue Ghost fits well with a subtle presentation. Halloween gives a warm, eye-catching incentive. Hot Tiger Pike attracts extra attention in murkier water or with aggressive fish.
You can fish the Rapala X-Rap Peto 14 in tight, but also alternate with breaks. Just during slow sinking, this bait often comes on strong. This makes it a smart choice for anglers who want a lot of control over pace, depth and presentation.
