Just put it in the tackle box on those windy days because it will not cast well. Bypass this purchase and stick to the original floater.Ĭomments: bill broke off within the first couple of outings.Ĭomments: It does have that erratic swimming action to it. I have tried throwing it on different lines, finding no luck. The bill makes it almost impossible to cast in all conditions. Most important, this is the worse casting lure on the market. In order to achieve that evasive swimming action you have to reel at a high speed. Couldn't expect more from Rapala! Pick some upĬomments: This is a great concept, terrible practice. Highly recommend in Purpledescent and silver. Caught many different species including largemouths walleyes and white bass. TRY IT!!įrom: Captain Adam: Lake George, NY 8/17/15Ĭomments: Awesome lure! Despite the disadvantages of its light weight I am still able to make it work. I will write to Rapala and suggest they beef up the belly with something stronger then balsa wood. This design flaw may be costly, but the lure is worth replacing. (Note: recently 2 other lures have suffered the same fate), the wire held at the snap swivel and all three fish were netted. My first Scatter rap pulled in 4 Large lakers before a 26"er tore the Hookwire from the belly of the lure. I use it mainly FLATLINE trolling for springtime Lake trout and Landlocked Salmon (also caught a Lake trout off a down rigger at 90ft on my first attempt).The fish love it! During the past two years since I began using the scatter rap, it has out performed other lures about 8 to 1. Emails to Rapala have gone unanswered.Ĭomments: This Lure is a fish magnet! It is best used as a trolling bait. As long as they stay together, these are walleye killers. At $9 per lure, this can get very expensive. This is open water trolling and the bills just "disappear". It's not like we're abusing this lure on rocks or other structure. Unfortunately, on four of the five Scatter Raps I bought, the bills broke off after very little use. All that’s needed is steady retrieve with minor changes in the retrieve speed, and the Scatter Rap® will do the catching.Comments: This is our go to lure for fishing walleye in the Columbia River. It’s just that with the Scatter Rap® you don’t have to be a seasoned pro with a wide arsenal of tackle and techniques. The Scatter Lip™ creates the most evasive, erratic, aggressive sweeping action with directional and cadence changes that the fishing pros have always used to get the big and vary fish to bite. It’s the movement no predator can resist. The erratic Scatter Rap® action perfectly mimics a spooked baitfish trying to escape a predator’s attack – and the evasive action of a baitfish trying to get out of a harm’s way will draw reaction strikes from all predatory species. A slow retrieve will create a more moderate Scatter Action while a fast retrieve gives the lure a more aggressive and erratic Escaping Minnow Action. All that’s needed is steady retrieve with minor changes in the retrieve speed, and the Scatter Rap® will do the catching. Ideal when trolling deeper areas such as drop offs and rock bars. A combination of the wide, tail-kicking action of the legendary Tail Dancer® and the escaping minnow action created by the Scatter Lip® creates a strong, evasive, erratic action no predator can resist.
