RAPALA ORIGINAL FLOATER 11 - LIVE SMELT
The Rapala Original Floater® 4-3/8" in Live Smelt (F11SML) captures the timeless Rapala design with a hyper-realistic finish that perfectly imitates the look and flash of a live smelt, a favorite prey for many freshwater predators.
Handcrafted from premium balsa wood, this lure delivers the signature wounded-minnow action that has made the Original Floater® world-famous. Whether you twitch it across the surface, retrieve it slowly for shallow strikes, or add weight to reach mid-depth fish, it always runs true and maintains its natural swimming motion.
The Live Smelt color pattern features realistic silver and olive hues with lifelike detailing that perfectly mimics baitfish in clear water conditions. Outfitted with three sharp VMC® black nickel hooks, this lure provides solid hook penetration and long-lasting performance.
Each one is hand-tuned and tank-tested to guarantee that unbeatable Rapala action straight from the box. Measuring 4-3/8 inches, weighing 3/16 oz., and running 4–6 ft deep, the F11SML is a versatile choice for targeting bass, trout, pike, and walleye that can’t resist a lifelike smelt presentation.
