About this lure

The Rapido F230 is the largest model in the Rapido series, designed for big game predators like kingfish and tuna. At 230mm and 100g, it offers versatile control – from natural stickbait presentations to technical, erratic actions that trigger strikes from wary fish. Its slim body ensures long casting distance and a lifelike baitfish escape pattern on the surface.

Natural escape action – imitates baitfish fleeing on the surface
Irregular rolling dive – unpredictable movement that excites migratory fish
Angler-controlled versatility – easy to switch between simple or technical stickbait actions
Slim aerodynamic body – casts further than bulkier lures
Floating type – sits ready for instant action after the dive
Heavy-duty setup – designed for PE8 and 140lb leaders

How to work it

Cast the Rapido 230F to structure, current lines, and baitfish schools.

Work it with sharp, rhythmic rod twitches to create the natural escape action and irregular rolling dives that trigger strikes from kingfish and tuna. Vary your cadence-slow, deliberate strips interspersed with sharp jerks-to match the mood of the fish; wary predators often respond to technical, erratic presentations.

The 100g weight and slim body deliver excellent casting distance and control, making it ideal for covering ground in open water or working tight around reefs.

Fish it on heavy PE8 and 140lb leader setup to handle powerful takes.
