The Rapala Original Floater 4-3/8″ in Firetiger (F11FT) is the iconic lure that started it all, and its still one of the most effective, go-to baits ever made. Known for its classic wounded-minnow action, this versatile lure can be twitched on the surface, retrieved as a shallow runner, or weighted for deeper presentations, giving anglers unmatched flexibility in any condition.
Crafted from premium balsa wood, the Original Floater offers lively, buoyant movement that perfectly mimics distressed baitfish. The Firetiger finish combines bold chartreuse, green, and orange hues with dark stripes, creating a high-visibility flash that triggers reaction bites, even in stained or low-light waters.
Outfitted with three VMC black nickel hooks, this lure ensures sharp hooksets and dependable durability. Each one is hand-tuned and tank-tested to guarantee that famous Rapala action right out of the box. Measuring 4-3/8 inches and weighing 3/16 oz., it dives to a 46 ft running depth, making it ideal for bass, walleye, trout, and pike when you need color, sound, and motion to provoke strikes.
