Lure Class: 151-205 mm, 50-99 gr, Sunken Walkers
Designed for fast and aggressive retrieves, the X-Rap® Magnum Stick 17 swims in wide S curves on the retrieve.
Horizontal line tie allows for a wider swimming action.
Once stopped, this lipless stick bait dives head-down with a fish-triggering flutter.
Heavy-duty construction with strong through-wire withstands savage big blue water predators.
Weighted for long-casts, the scalloped internal reflective construction gives life-like flash even with the slightest motion.
The heart of the Magnum Stick´s appeal lies in its dynamic and versatile action. On a swift, steady retrieve, it performs a mesmerizing sub-surface “walk-the-dog” motion, carving out broad, sweeping S-curves that perfectly imitate a fleeing baitfish in distress. This powerful visual cue is a dinner bell for predators like Tuna, Giant Trevally, and Kingfish, triggering their instinctual chase response from a great distance. The horizontal line tie is a critical design element, maximizing this side-to-side darting action for an incredibly wide and enticing presentation.
However, the magic truly happens on the pause. The moment you stop your retrieve, the X-Rap Magnum Stick 17 transforms. It immediately dives with a pronounced head-down posture, fluttering and flashing as it descends through the water column. This perfectly mimics a wounded, dying fish—an easy meal that opportunistic predators find absolutely irresistible. Be prepared for explosive strikes on the drop, as this is often when the most aggressive fish commit.
Built to battle giants, its heavy-duty body and robust through-wire construction provide the brute strength needed to endure crushing jaws and punishing, drag-screaming fights. You can cast with the confidence that your lure won´t fail when you´re connected to a true leviathan. Its significant weight is optimized for extreme casting distances, allowing you to reach distant feeding frenzies and cover vast expanses of water with every cast, even into a stiff headwind. Inside, the signature scalloped X-Rap foil creates a brilliant, life-like flash that captures and reflects any available light, ensuring maximum visibility and attraction from deep below or far away.
