Default Crankin Rap

I am looking for a review of the new Rapala Crankinn Rap. Anyone have any success using these?

I have not personally tried one yet, but the Crankin' Rap really doesn't seem to be anything new. It looks to me like another version of the Rapala DT (Dives To) series of cranks. I have used the DT series for bass with great success.

It bears a striking resemblance to the Storm lures that sell for half the price..........I'm a big Rapala fan..........but its clearly the same bait as the Storm with a slightly different paint job. It would be interesting to compare the manufacturing location on the two packages.

I own a couple dozen LC's
I like the deep divers and the pointers for Bass. And yes there worth it
For trolling while I'm sure that there's a LC that would work, there's far better lures out there at 1/4 of the cost
