Rapala revealed a few new hard baits at last weeks ICAST show that Dave thinks will be a huge hit. Check these babies out!

The DT Thug (top) joins the DT lineup as the shallow-running crank-and-crash bait (hence the “Thug” name). It shines in and around weeds, wood and debris with a pronounced side-to-side wobble. Built of balsa, it weighs 3/8-ounce and dives 4 to 8 feet.
The Flat Rap (middle) captures a little bit of a Shad Rap and a little bit of a Minnow Rap, but the flat sides lend it a new and unique action that’s best described as hard-rolling with a quicker, tighter, wounded-minnow display. Made of balsa and rises slowly when paused.
Rapala’s new MaxRap 13 is a high-test non-balsa bait meant to outcast everything else in a tacklebox via its internal MaxCast system with tungsten balls. Designed with a short lip and a slightly arched back, this thin-bodied, minnow-profile lure cruises or slashes just below the surface at 1 to 2 feet with a seductive rolling action.
Rapala also expanded size and color selection in its X-Rap SubWalk, X-Rap Walk and Skitter Walk series.
