IIRC, the Clackin' Rap weighs in at 7/8oz, or at least the original sized one. It's a heavy bait, nearing the high end of the rod's ratings. While the rod may not be the best for throwing it; it will work just fine.

What's the number on the bottom of the bait?

7, i guess it is no biggie, i have smaller lipless , but the water is a little murky, and it makes great noise, the rod i have hopefully is a good all-around rod, i dont use many cranks to justify another rod for these tyeps.

The 7 is 5/8oz, you should be fine.
