Rapala Air Boss 8 cm

Rapala Air Boss 8 cm - Long-Casting Suspending Twitchbait

The Rapala Air Boss 8 cm is a versatile freshwater hardbait built for anglers who want one lure that can cover different predator fishing situations. It is easy to cast, twitch and pause over mid-depth water where perch, pike and zander often hunt.

The MaxCast internal tungsten weight system helps the Air Boss cast far and accurately, even when fishing into wind or covering larger areas from the bank or boat. On a steady retrieve it swims with a clear wobbling action, while short twitches make it dart from side to side like an injured baitfish. The suspending buoyancy helps keep the lure in the strike zone during pauses, while the wire-through construction, lead-free design and VMC 7547 hooks make it a reliable hardbait for freshwater predator fishing.
