Rapala X-Rap® Magnum® Xplode 170 - Mullet

The Rapala X-Rap Magnum Xplode 170 in Mullet finish is a professional-grade saltwater and freshwater lure built for anglers targeting large predatory fish in open water, around structure, and in tidal zones. This 6.7-inch crankbait is engineered for casting distance and explosive action, making it ideal for trophy hunters pursuing stripers, pike, musky, and saltwater species. The through-wire construction and reinforced design absorb the head-shaking runs of hard-fighting gamefish without failure, earning its place in the tackle boxes of serious anglers and tournament competitors.

The X-Rap Magnum Xplode features Rapala's renowned through-wire construction paired with a thick-walled ABS plastic body that provides exceptional durability and impact resistance on every cast and hookset. Its low-positioned tow point generates a wide, erratic rolling and darting action that mimics wounded baitfish, triggering aggressive strikes from feeding fish. The Mullet finish uses natural coloration and scale pattern realism to match forage in both clear and stained water conditions. Weighing 0.4 lbs and measuring 10 inches in length, this magnum-class lure displaces significant water and casts into wind while maintaining precise depth control and consistent performance.

This lure excels for anglers targeting trophy-class fish in estuaries, coastal flats, river systems, and deep freshwater lakes where larger baitfish are the primary forage. The durable construction handles repeated contact with rocks, driftwood, and teeth without chipping or cracking, making it reliable in high-pressure situations. The Xplode 170 pairs well with braided main line and fluorocarbon leaders, allowing anglers to maximize casting distance while maintaining sensitive feel. Whether working drop-offs, jetties, or open-water structure, this lure delivers consistent results for experienced anglers who demand proven performance.
