    Anyone here have a supply of Rapala Clackin Raps they care to sell. Mostly looking for the largest 2 sizes. I believe that would be size 8 and 9’s. Willing to pay a fair price. These are no longer available. I picked up some in a dump bin just after they were discontinued. I wish I would have bought about 10X more than I did. The dump bin at Gander had 100’s of them. Just not many in the larger sizes and most of the larger sizes were all the same color.

    You won’t like the price, but I find all the discontinued lures/colors I like that aren’t available anymore on Ebay.

    What specific bait are you looking for? The shad looking one or the minnow?

    I have a bunch of the big minnow style (size 9 and 11?). Firetiger and clown colors and maybe a couple others.

    Like this but bigger. $10 each tyd

    Butthurt – That is a good offer. I was mainly looking for the larger sizes. 8’s and 9’s.
    If you still have them available in a few weeks I may take you up on your offer. I hope to get lucky and find a supply of larger ones available someplace. Thanks for the offer.

    I’m going to bring this one back to life. I’m still on the lookout for some of these. Willing to trade some smaller size ones for larger sizes or simply buy the larger size ones. Let me know what you have.

    I’ll look in my stash to see if I have any of these. One thing I do know is I have a dozen Risto Raps new in the box. A bunch of Tail Dancers too.

    I have a couple of these along with several hundred of other various cranks. I have yet to tie one on…. What is so special about these?

    They are our go to in Canada for shallow water lake trout. Other Rattle type lipless baits work as well, but not as good as the Clackin Raps. We also fish them for Pike in areas where we expect mostly smaller Pike. I have even caught a 42″ Pike on one. They make a much different noise than say a rattletrap. More of a knock than a Rattle.

    I’ll take a look, I got a bunch when the bait shop I worked at burnt down, not sure if I have any left.
