Rapala Ultra-Lite Kit (ULKT1)
Four proven ultralight Rapala lures for panfish and trout, at a higher cost per lure.
We bought Docooler 10 Pcs Fishing Lures Mixed Hard/Soft Baits Popper Crankbait VIB Topwater Floating Lures Hooks Kit. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. It is a mixed hard bait lure kit with crankbait and lipless rattle styles from a well known brand with a maker page and reviews, though smaller and pricier.
The short version
- Anglers new to ultralight spinning gear
- Trout, crappie and panfish fishing in streams and small lakes
- A gift for someone who fishes
- You want a large mixed kit with soft plastics and topwater baits
- You fish heavy line for big bass
- You want to pick your own colors
What owners like
- Lures work as they come, with no tuning needed
- Good mix for trout, crappie, panfish and small bass
- Easy entry point for someone new to ultralight fishing
Common complaints
- Only four lures, fewer than generic kits at a similar price
- Colors are not chosen by the buyer and may differ from photos
- Sizes are too small for heavier bass or saltwater tackle
Based on Rapala's product page, a tackle retailer listing, a fishing blog's ultralight lure guide and the Amazon listing title. Little independent criticism was found, so complaints reflect the kit's stated limits..

What it does
A 4 lure set of small Rapala hard baits (a floating minnow, a sinking minnow, a crankbait and a lipless rattle bait) for trout, panfish and bass on light tackle; reviewed here in place of the generic Docooler 10 piece lure kit.
- Lures picked by Rapala's pro staff for ultralight fishing
- Covers several depths, from a floating minnow to a sinking CountDown
- Rattlin' Rapala adds sound for murky water
- Lures are hand tuned and tank tested, per one review
- Colors vary from the photos, per Rapala
A good starter set for anyone fishing ultralight gear who wants proven, name brand lures that run right out of the package. The trade-off is fewer lures for more money than generic mixed kits, and no topwater popper or soft plastics.
