5. Rapala Super Shadow Rap
This is an award-winning bait from the masters at Rapala and stands out in our best pike lures 2020 list.
Twitch it gently for on-the-spot action, or rip it hard to turn it into the mouth of a big fish. Either way opportunistic predators can’t deny the Super Shadow Rap as it kicks hard to the side, then slowly fades away into the depths like a dying fish. Its tall body perfectly mimics the silhouette of a big baitfish.
Running Depth: 1-1.4 m
Length: 16cm
Weight: 77g
4. Savage Gear Da’Bush
Incredible flash and heavy propulsion in the water and the superior Colours and quality of the components. Da’Bush Spinnerbaits have a spooky, hypnotic effect on big Predators, and they attack the lure with brutal force. Da’bush spinnerbaits are perfect to fish through weed beds, snags and submerged lily pads. Big spinnerbaits are a must in your tackle box when lure fishing for pike, so make room for Savage Gear’s Da’Bush. A worthy entry in our best pike lures 2020 list.
Weight: 34/42g
3. Rapala X Rap Jointed Shad 13cm
With its jointed body, the X Rap Jointed Shad produces an exaggerated swimming motion, sometimes just the ticket to turn on sluggish fish and has been very effective for cold water pike.
Cast or trolled the intense action begins at the slowest speed, though an equally fantastic action is achieved at high speed.
Near neutral buoyancy with a slight rise on the pause mimics a wounded minnow.

1. Rapala X-Rap Peto – Best pike lures 2020
Our best pike lures and simply our favourite lure of 2020 is The X-Rap Peto. The lure combines Rapala’s fish-catching X-Rap construction with a beautiful colour-matched soft tail to create a stunning, fish slaying hybrid bait. With its slow sink rate and horizontal fall, X-Rap Peto is the perfect choice for tough cold water conditions. The tail wags with a wide action when retrieved; or try a jerk pause allowing the bait to slowly swim into the depths. The soft tail is firmly secured to the body with a 6-point stainless plate.
