@@ronaldmcdonald3965 : Closer to 50, for me. The most expensive lure in that display case at the hardware store. I can remember spending $1.65 for the privilege of buying one in a flyspeck village. It was my first and best topwater lure, from Day 1. The wounded minnow imitation, where you make it look like a hurt fish trying but failing to swim to the depths. Irresistible to bass. Immune to snagging in rocks. The one lure you'd jump in and get, when any other time, you'd be scared to go in. Rapala courage.

As a ten year old I got my first real fishing lure, Rapala, and I’m using 40 years later. I have built up my tackle box with adding solely Rapala lures over the years and I’ve probably got every color and type made. I also still have the original box and papers for each lure. Those cardboard boxes must be another invention by Rapala because they never wear out. This is a company that checks every lure before it leaves the facility. They have a sense of quality and dedication. They know that is something that Business Think-tanks and brainstorming ideas about what well make money isn’t going to work. They make a high quality product and have always been very inexpensive in the store. Balsa wood is still used. One could even say that the lures are handmade but Rapala sells for a fraction of what they are worth. This has been happening for 100 years. It reminds me of what American companies were doing when I was ten, 40 years ago.

In the Boundry Waters of Minnesota over 50 years ago, I met my first Rapala. My crafty mother took some visual cues and made her own versions so we could go after big pike and walleyes. The local outfitter was renting the Rapala baits for, if I remember correctly, $10 bucks per day plus a $20 deposit in case you lost it. Mom's knock off was probably almost as effective and I doubt my dad was ever prouder of her when he landed some nice pike on the cheap. Sawbill Canoe Outfitters north of Toftee, Mn was our favorite place for several summers.

To be fair, I’ve tested them and they bomb compared to the Shakespeare Big S or the Rublex Ondex No.6 spinner. The catch rates are considerably lower and that’s testing them for 1000’s of hours alongside other lures. A twitched dead bait surpasses all artificials, especially in terms of successful hook ups and fish landed. The trebles also hurt the fish and are horrible to unhook, compared to a single Aberdeen hook. I also had a Rapala scale which stopped functioning after a few weeks of use. I received no response from their customer services, so I refused to buy their products ever again. You can’t trust a company, who have been shown to not support you when things go wrong.

Victor Remick I should imagine different countries might vary in the fish’s lure preference, but Pike, Perch and Chub in the UK, tend to be less likely to take a Rapala. It’s not just their performance, I think that they are bad because they add to plastic pollution in our waterways and because they are too expensive for what they are. They are pretty though, haaa.

Years ago I bought a freshwater Rapala lure out of a discount junk bin at a Walmart in Bentoville Arkansas for a dollar and sum. That freshwater lure turned out to be the best saltwater lure I ever had. That lure landed speckled seatrout shortly after hitting the waters off the pier on the Gulf of Mexico in Riviera TX. My youngest brother took the old lure out of my shed one day after asking me for some mono for his fishing rod and lost it due to not trying it properly. I was so upset and since then I have yet to find any lure as good as that one.
