Product Overview
Up for auction/sale is a phenomenal piece of big-game trolling history: an original 1980s Bob Schneider RattleYap. This specific model features Bob's legendary factory Hacksawprofile. It was engineered to mimic the ultra-aggressive, blocky look of a large Yap head that has been cut down to a more compact size. Original 1980s iterations of this unique factory shape are highly prized by vintage tackle collectors and competitive canyon tournament captains alike.
Design & Performance Features
  • The Hacksaw Geometry: Designed with a short, blocky, high-impact profile. It provides the thick diameter and massive internal lead-weight core of a large lure but packs it into a smaller-target size. This matches the hatch for school-sized tuna while retaining maximum stability.
  • The Patented "Yap" Architecture: Features Bob Schneider’s legendary blunt nose and slightly off-center leader hole. This iconic engineering forces the lure into a wandering, quivering swim that delivers an unmatched hookup ratio.
  • Internal Acoustic Chamber (Rattle): Embedded deep within the heavy, lead-weighted resin core is a localized rattle capsule. As the lure wobbles through the spread, it emits a low-frequency click and acoustic thump that helps sharp-sighted pelagic predators track the lure through dense engine noise and whitewater.
  • Trolling Spread Specialty: Because of its high weight-to-length ratio, this head handles heavy sea conditions and high speeds flawlessly without blowing out of the wake. It is a legendary producer when deployed as a "sniper" bait run far back in the clean water on the long outriggers or the shotgun position
