The Rapala Countdown is an iconic lure designed to fish at all depths using the "countdown" technique. This lure is highly effective at prospecting all water layers, whether it's fish swimming close to weed beds on the surface or on the bottom. Its swimming action, defined by a slow rolling action, perfectly imitates a wounded livebait, attracting predators.
Ideal for casting, the Countdown sinks on release and rises on retrieve, allowing precise depth control. Made from balsa wood, it is lightweight, durable and available in a range of sizes to suit a variety of fishing situations. Each lure is carefully hand-tuned and tank-tested to guarantee optimum performance.
With a length of 11 cm and a weight of 16 g, the Rapala Countdown is a sinking lure that reaches a swimming depth of 2.7 to 3.9 m, perfect for controlled depth fishing.
