Rapala Super Shad Rap From the clear lakes of Scandinavia to the murky waters of the Amazon the Super Shad Rap patterns offer perfect imitations of the prey of predator fish and attractor colors. Natural swimming action at any speed. To fish the Super Shad Rap over very shallow areas or vegetation, keep the rod tip up and retrieve slowly. The lure will roll and wobble whilst slightly breaking the surface, creating a good wake behind it. On a faster retrieve the Super Shad Rap will dive to about 1.5 meters. It can be fished with a fairly steady retrieve, but also with a sideways sweeping motion, and even with hard jerks. Slow side sweeps with the rod will create a sliding action with natural stops when the rod is brought back to forward position. Reel in slowly while bringing the rod back to its original position to remove any slack in the line. This will help feel even the most attempted bites and also slows the lure's rise. For an aggressive approach use a jerk bait retrieve; pumping the rod up will keep the Super Shad Rap close to the surface and jerking the tip down will let the lure work deeper. The jerking retrieve can help bring out fish from heavy cover, so try it close to heavy cover and thick weed beds.
