Myne is hands down The shad rap gold and black color. I have caught more fish and more bigger fish on that than any other in my boat. If I had to choose a second one, i would have to say clown. Even though i have seen a lot of people catch them with the blue and white, it just doesn’t like me.

I would have to say my all time favorite is the old BLUE/WHITE but unfortunatly they don’t make them any more and I only have one left. so if any of you have any and want to sell them send me a private message I will pay top dollor for them.
talk to you later
Nate Cadwellpredator_2Posts: 152February 27, 2002 at 6:59 am #237885Hey Nate they started making the blue and white again.
Fleet Farm had a bunch of them.
My favorite colors for the river are firetiger & perchFebruary 27, 2002 at 12:41 pm #237888I like the one that goes…. jettin jiggy with it na-na na na na-na jettin jiggy with it na-na na na na-na I think Will Smith does that one
ecFebruary 27, 2002 at 2:59 pm #237896#1 – Clown
#2 – Blue and white
#3 – FiretigerI see they’re not making the clown anymore, but they brought blue and white back, so I guess it’s a wash for me.
February 27, 2002 at 3:32 pm #237898i love the original black and silver color…..itll work almost every time…second is the perch color…..i try to stick w/what looks the most natural

February 27, 2002 at 6:20 pm #2379281. #5 Firetiger
2. #5 Natural Shad
3. #7 Firetiger
4. #9 Gold/Black (I fish a lake where the northerns won’t leave this one alone)February 27, 2002 at 6:46 pm #237938My pool 4 faves….
Low water visibility = firetiger & craw…. in that order.
Better water visibility (its never reall good and of course terms like “better” and “low” are pretty subjective anyway) = perch & craw…. in that order.I also do fairly well on black/silver, shad, black/gold. Others I can’t catch anything on…. clown. I must be the clown! I can’t catch anything but 12″ sauger on that darn color when others would list it as a favorite. Blue/silver…. same deal. A popular color that I just don’t do well on.
I own a ton of ALL of them and I always start each day pulling 4 different colors on my 4 rods. As soon as I start catching fish I start switching everything over to the hottest color… and at the end of the day it always seems to be FT, perch, or craw. I think the key there is the orange on all three lures as that’s about the only similarity between the patterns other than the fact that they’re all raps.
February 27, 2002 at 6:57 pm #237939Anybody, know who’s got the “hot” Shad Rap on the RCL that
is appearently only distributed in Canada? The bait is a special “pearl white”. I heard some body in N.Dakota was importing them and selling out of his garage to the Pros
GofishFebruary 27, 2002 at 7:03 pm #237940A guy can pick up these “canadian” colors in various shops throughout MN. The all pearl white is a popular one as is the all orange model. 4 Season’s in Red Wing was one such shop…. there’s several up near Mille Lacs, including Tutt’s on the west side. Be prepared to pay somewhere between $8-10 a shot for the privledge of fishing these baits.
February 27, 2002 at 7:14 pm #237944Ya Hey Guy – Reminds of the old days, when a hot color comes along a everybody is seach’n. That orange is hot too!
Of course I’m far enough south nobodys heard or have seen’m

February 28, 2002 at 2:16 am #237978If I had to choose one Rap out of the box….just one…..and fish all day on the river with it…..it would be a #5 shadrap in the Crawdad color.

February 28, 2002 at 3:11 am #237981If I had to go with just one. I have pulled the blue/chrome w orange belly#9. During slow bite summer days after other boats and pulled in 25-28″ eyes.
