Quick take

Five-inch suspending jerkbait with deep-diving lip and textured translucent body that imitates baitfish.

The Rapala X-Rap Magnum 20 in Bonito is a 5 1/2-inch hard-body lure weighing 1 5/8 ounces, rated to dive about 20 feet. Its deep-diving lip and textured translucent body suit anglers who want to reach deeper water with a lure built for trolling and casting. Bass, walleye and pike are among the species it targets, making it a practical pick for open-water predators.

Best for

  • Casting and jerking for pike and musky
  • Trolling deep structure for large species
  • Situations where an erratic, lifelike action triggers strikes

Skip if

  • You need topwater presentations
  • You fish shallow water with shallow-diving lures

Strengths

  • Deep-diving lip reaches structure and deeper presentations
  • Textured translucent body mimics natural baitfish
  • Suspending action allows pause-and-dart retrieves

Trade-offs

  • Requires coordinated jerking and twitching to fish properly
  • Deep-diving construction limits shallow water use
