Since its founding in 1936, Rapala stands for innovation and quality in fishing tackle. Nowadays, the name is deeply rooted and known to every angler, far beyond “only” spin fishing. The invention of the “wobbler” by Lauri Rapala was a long time ago and much has happened since then. Today, the brand trumps with superior know-how especially in lure design, combining traditional values in craftsmanship with state-of-the-art technologies and uncompromising quality control. Because Rapala lures are still hand-tuned and tank-tested before packaging to assure your lure has the Rapala trademark swimming action.
The flat-sided BX® Swimmer features an articulated body with a double pivot joint which in combination with the responsive, solid balsa core creates a rolling, moderate swim bait action that starts on a very slow retrieve. The durable co-polymer hard shell protects the delicate balsa and allows highly detailed, life-like finishes. The BX® Swimmer is weighted to be slow sinking and balanced for long casts.
