The Rapala CrushCity The Kickman, with a length of 7.5 cm, is a particularly effective shad that excels in its subtle action. This shad has a paddle-tail tail that makes a good swinging motion even when reeling in slowly. Like the other models in Rapala’s CrushCity series, The Kickman is injected in the belly with a saltwater solution. This ensures that the shad remains very stable in the water and straight, even when it falls still. This allows for very subtle fishing with The Kickman. The unique CrushCity scent increases the attractiveness, luring the fish not only visually, but also via scent.
