Rapala X-Rap® Magnum® Xplode 170 - Mullet

The Rapala X-Rap Magnum Xplode 170 in Mullet finish is a professional-grade saltwater crankbait designed for serious anglers targeting large predatory fish in coastal and offshore environments. This 7-inch lure excels when pursuing stripers, pike, musky, and trophy saltwater species that require realistic baitfish imitations.

Built on decades of Rapala's proven diving crankbait technology, the Xplode 170 delivers exceptional casting distance, depth control, and triggering action that can turn a good day of fishing into a memorable one. The Xplode platform combines a tight, rapid wobble with sudden burst-action movements that mimic the erratic escape behavior of fleeing baitfish, enticing aggressive strikes from even the most inactive predators.

The Mullet finish accurately replicates the scale pattern and coloration of live mullet, a primary forage species in saltwater systems where trophy fish hunt. With a balanced weight distribution and reinforced construction, this lure consistently dives to depths of 8–12 feet, making it ideal for boat-based anglers working drop-offs and shore-bound casters tackling jetties and piers.
