Rapala Original Floating Lure F09

The Rapala Original Floating F09 is arguably the most famous fishing lure ever made — hand-tuned and crafted from natural balsa wood in Finland using a tradition that stretches back over 80 years. Measuring 9cm (3.5 inches) and weighing 7g, this lure floats at rest and dives to a running depth of 0–4 feet when retrieved. The iconic side-to-side wobbling action is universally recognized as the gold standard for minnow-imitating hard baits. Available in more than 30 color patterns, each meticulously designed to replicate the appearance of baitfish species found around the world. VMC black nickel treble hooks come pre-rigged for immediate, reliable fish-catching performance. The F09 is equally effective with a simple cast-and-retrieve presentation, stop-and-go retrieves that trigger reaction strikes, and slow trolling behind a kayak or boat. Proven on bass, northern pike, walleye, brown trout, salmon, and virtually every predatory freshwater species. Because each lure is individually hand-tuned and tested before leaving the factory, the Rapala Original swims perfectly straight right out of the package — a claim few other lures can make. A must-have in every serious angler’s tackle box.
