Rapala Original Floating Minnow

Rapala Original Floating Minnow

The Rapala Original Floating Minnow is the legendary lure that started it all. Hand-tuned and tank-tested, this classic design perfectly imitates a wounded baitfish, triggering strikes from predators worldwide. Its versatile action allows anglers to twitch, troll, or retrieve steadily, making it one of the most trusted and effective lures in fishing history.
