Rapala Floater 2 3/4" 1/8 Silver
The Rapala Floater 2 3/4" 1/8 Silver is a compact jerk bait that delivers the wounded minnow action that's made Rapala synonymous with reliable lure performance for decades. At just 2 3/4 inches and weighing 1/8 ounce, this silver-finish hard bait is built to cover shallow water where bass, pike, and panfish often hunt. It's the kind of lure that works straight out of the box — no fussing required — because every one is hand-tuned and tank-tested before it ships.
What makes the Floater 2 so versatile is its ability to fish multiple ways depending on how you work it. Twitch it on the surface for a topwater presentation that triggers aggressive strikes from shallow feeders. Let it ride higher in the water column on a steady retrieve, or add weight with a split shot to fish deeper structure. It's equally at home worked off a three-way swivel or bottom bouncer rig for anglers targeting deeper zones. That classic action — the distressed-baitfish vibe that's fooled countless fish — remains unchanged because it just plain works.
Built with premium black nickel VMC® hooks that resist corrosion and hold up to the abuse that comes with extended use, the Floater 2 is made to land fish and survive the fight. The silver finish provides natural, water-column-matching visibility in clear to moderately stained water. Whether you're working grass beds, weed lines, or structure on lakes and rivers, this is a lure that deserves a spot in any angler's tackle box.
