Rapala Original Floater 5cm Lures

The Rapala Original Floater 5cm is a true classic in predator fishing, offering the same legendary performance that has made it a favourite among anglers worldwide, but in a slightly larger profile ideal for a wider range of species. Perfect for pike fishing as well as perch, chub, and trout, this lure delivers consistent results across rivers, canals, and stillwaters.

Crafted from premium balsa wood, the Original Floater produces the iconic wounded minnow action that predator fish find impossible to resist. Its natural swimming movement mimics an injured baitfish, making it highly effective whether fish are actively feeding or need a more subtle presentation to trigger a strike.

The floating design gives you complete versatility in how you fish it. Work it across the surface with gentle twitches, retrieve it as a shallow runner, or add weight to explore deeper areas. It can also be fished using methods such as bottom bouncing or three-way swivel rigs, making it one of the most adaptable lures in any tackle box.

Each lure is hand tuned and tank tested to ensure perfect action straight out of the box. The stainless through-wire construction provides added strength and durability, while the sharp VMC black nickel hooks ensure solid hook-ups against hard-fighting predator fish.

At 5cm and 3g, this version offers a slightly larger and more versatile profile than smaller models, making it ideal when fish are targeting bigger baitfish or when you need a bit more casting weight and presence in the water.

A must-have for any predator angler, the Rapala Original Floater 5cm continues to prove why it remains one of the most trusted and effective fishing lures ever created.
