Description:

This extra-loud shallow-running crankbait is equipped with 2 full-size treble hooks for sure hookups. Special "tuned" sound chamber is loaded with rattlin' BBs that are harmonic, uniform and "in tune" with nature, and alert and arouse the attack instinct in fish. The Rattlin' Rapala can be vertically jigged without hook fouling and has great falling/swimming action. A special favorite of bass and northern pike anglers.

Model RNR04 - 1-1/2"; 3/16 oz.; hook size 7
Model RNR05 - 2"; 3/8 oz.; hook size 5
Model RNR07 - 2-3/4"; 1/2 oz.; hook size 3
Model RNR08 - 3-1/8"; 3/4 oz.; hook size 3

Pros:	good hooks
Cons:	colors aren't stocked

Decent lipless crank. I like the hooks better than those on the rat-l-traps. Probably prefer the action on the diamond shad or silver buddy better (thinner body, tighter wiggle). Hardly a measurable difference though.

Difficult to find colors I like in local stock (bone, chrome) - Dick's & Wal-mart usually only have a few, and usually have a much better selection of Rat-l-trap colors.

I like the rapala rattle, but if you really would like a better one I would reccomend the Yozuri Rattle and Vibe! I have had very good results with it.
