I catch fish on both, but the X-Rap is more productive for me. Quality of construction wise, I think the X-Rap is clearly superior to the LC.  The finishes on th LC seem very fragile, while the clear construction of the X-Rap will handle rocks and toothy fish much better.  

I have caught fish on both.  I think you can catch fish on any jerk bait when there is a bit for it.  But there has been times with the pointer that I have caught fish when nothing else is working.  Great cool water bait and I have cool water fishing!!!! :'(

..Anyone who pays more than $10.00 for a lure has rocks in their head...

Hmm...

What makes $10 the "magic number"?

Micro - the durability depends a lot on the color LC you choose. Aurora black and American shad, for example, are not durable at all. The finish will chip away quickly - even though these colors continue to produce when they're all chewed and chipped up. I have a Pointer in Aurora black that is absolutely demolished, but it's still one of my go-to's. On the other hand, Ghost minnow and Chartreuse minnow, for example, are very durable colors that seem like they're actually built into the lure as opposed to coating it.
