Description

The Rapala Floating Jointed J9 is a 9cm, 7g balsa two-piece minnow built for a 1.5–2.1m running depth and rigged with two size 5 hooks. The jointed body breaks up its swimming action into a lifelike wriggle at low speed while still tracking tight and true at higher speeds, riding just under the surface with its back breaking the film.

The independently hinged sections keep the lure working even on a painfully slow retrieve, drawing strikes from fish that won't commit to a straight-swimming bait. It is supplied here across the full Universal and Japan Special colour range.

Information

The swimming action

The jointed, two-piece body breaks the swim into a lifelike wriggle at low speed while still tracking tight and true at higher speeds, riding just under the surface with its back breaking the film.

When to throw it

Effective for shallow-to-mid-depth water where a more exaggerated swimming action is wanted, drawing strikes from fish that won't commit to a straighter-swimming bait.

How to work it

The independently hinged sections keep the lure working even on a painfully slow retrieve; short pauses let the sections settle and flutter before moving off again.

The setup it likes

Suits a 7' medium spinning rod with 8–12 lb fluorocarbon and a 2500 reel.

Before you buy

Straight answers

How is it priced?

We aim to beat your local price. We ship direct from Japan, cutting out the overseas middleman, and shipping is shown at checkout before you pay.

When does my order leave Japan?

Orders are packed in Japan and leave within 3–8 business days, tracked. You get a tracking number by email the moment it ships.

How long does delivery take?

Your order leaves Japan in 3–8 business days, tracked. Checkout shows the delivery options for your country, with their price and delivery estimate, before you pay.

Will I be charged import duty or tax?

US import duty is shown as its own line at checkout, before you pay. Your parcel then travels duty-paid, so there is nothing to pay on delivery.

Is it genuine stock?

Yes. Every item is genuine Japanese-market stock, sourced in Japan from an established Japanese wholesaler and shipped straight to you. Never marketplace resellers.
