Review: Traded UP Bigtime - Here's a true fish story for you: I bought one little Size 2 silver Rapala lure for my husband. It has netted us his limit in sea-run trout every day he's gone spincasting since receiving it. That's a lot of protein gained in trade for an under-$8 piece of painted wood! Exactly what I hoped for. And, actually, he hasn't lost the little floater yet, so the trade-UP deal is ongoing from my small investment. The sea or a Big One will get away with the lure, it's inevitable. But so far I estimate we've saved almost $100 (at current supermarket price) for couldn't-be-fresher fish. That's without figuring in the value of priceless fun mornings wading in the saltwater here in Alaska. Rapala lures are high end, definitely not inexpensive, but they win hands down in productivity. He's tried them all, and has sworn by Rapala his entire adult life. We were both bummed when local gear stores stopped carrying the brand, saying "too expensive, they don't sell well." It's good to know that the el cheapo lures he's been fishing with were the reason for poor catch seasons, not a decline in his fishing skills with age. Now he swears by desertcart as well, for offering these little charmers. So this is my Thankyou, desertcart (and Rapala), for the best deal per pound on fresh fish in years, and the best recipe for happy husband. We'll be back for more as long as they make 'em and you ship 'em.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these have the lead weight in them? Aka rattlers.**
A: No it is very light. They're designed to mimic lifelike movement without the extra weight but if you need to you can add a leader

**Q: What colors have you found most effective in trolling for rainbow trout?**
A: I don't fish for rainbow trout but have found silver\black & gold\black effective on bass, walleye, etc.

**Q: How long is this lure ?**
A: approximately 1.5 inches. Great universal lure. I would go to an f11 for night time walleyes, but this lure for a bottom bouncing rig.

**Q: What is the next larger size in inches of length?**
A: Not sure which Rapala he refers to.   Floating Rapalas range in length from 1.5" to 7".   I prefer the 3.5" and the 4.375" ones in Black and Silver or Black & Gold.
