With a slight exaggeration of the unique Rapala “baitfish in distress” swimming action, the Rapala J09 Jointed gets the undivided attention of otherwise disinterested gamefish. This articulated, or “broken-back” bait can be fished top-to-bottom. Swimming action at the slowest of speeds makes this bait the perfect choice after a cold front when fish are traditionally finicky and in a negative feeding mood. Balsa wood construction with VMC black nickel hooks. Each is hand-tuned and tank-tested for perfect swimming action right out of the box.

• The Rapala J09 Jointed Minnow is a 3 1/2 inch, 1/4 oz balsa wood minnow with a tight, wobbling action.
• The versatile J09 can be cranked or trolled, diving to about 5 to 7 feet deep. The Balsa wood floats and wobbles like only balsa wood can.
• The Broken-Back design of the Jointed gives you even more action, even when trolled or retrieved at super slow speeds, and drives bass and walleye nuts.
• Equipped with two VMC Black Nickel #5 treble hooks.
• Hand tuned and tank-tested, the Rapala J09 Jointed comes in a ton of great colors.
