Greetings,
Just wish to share with everyone on the new Rapala X-Rap Tropical Colors that is launched not long ago by Rapala. Realized that, there is no thread started on this 4 new native colors in Malaysia. I guess, every angler in this fraternity should be blessed, that Rapala VMC has work and listen closely to all your concern in any sorts of fishing ramblings.
Hence, Rapala VMC has took a milestone leap to work on something unique everytime. Even from the exciting comeback of Fat Rap, Risto Rap and even now the new Rapalero rods ! which is worth salivating all over again.
Allow me to share the artworks and the whole journey of this exciting dream to be designing for Rapala (World’s Famous). By far, its a priceless experience to see my designs being produced in end product and seeing it marketed to the public. To me, its a sense of accomplishment to be able to meet every anglers wish to have our own native lure colors in Malaysia.
Now, every angler can stand tall using this new X-Rap colors with more brighter confidence in working this lures in the water. This new X-Rap colors has hit the market not more than a month and it’s seen to be catching a wide spread of species out there in our waters.

Apart from that, I have a few friends that told me that they have caught Toman, Sebarau, Haruan, Barramundi, etc. They seem to be getting good catches from this new color lures. I smiled and answered them “It was the confidence instinct that caught you the fishes”.
Lets hope, this new colors could boost up every anglers confidence and continue to fish hard exploring interesting elements of fishing on the water !
