Quick take
A 14cm topwater walking bait with a lifelike glass ghost finish that imitates baitfish fleeing on the surface.
The Rapala X-Rap Long Cast 14 in Glass Ghost is a sinking hard bait about 5.5 inches long and 1.9 ounces, made for long casts. It runs to about 4.9 feet deep and has a rolling, wobbling action that responds to a twitch and flutters down on the fall. Two 5/0 in-line single hooks come on the bait, a setup suited to larger predators in open water.
