Rapala Clap Tail 110 Topwater Lure - Bass Fishing Surface Hard Bait, Matte Shad

Rapala ClapTail 110 Topwater Lure: Surface Noise, Surface Strikes

The Rapala ClapTail 110 is crafted for topwater action that draws bass from cover with audible surface cues and a bold silhouette. Measuring 4-3/8 inches and weighing 7/8 oz in Matte Shad, it pairs a familiar Rapala design with a dedicated clacking tail that adds a new dimension to surface fishing.

Use this lure when you want to provoke a reaction bite from active fish near grass beds, docks, or over shadowed structure. Its profile and balance are tuned for a steady walk-the-dog rhythm, while long casts help you reach cruising bass across open water or around submerged cover.

Surface-Driven Action and Real-Life Use

The clacking tail creates surface noise and a splash that can grab a bass’s attention as soon as the lure lands. A deliberate, steady retrieve keeps the lure skimming and wiggling along the surface, with stop-and-go pulses that mimic a struggling baitfish.
