The Rapala DT  Series Crankbait was introduced in 2003. This model was designed to dive faster and stay in the strike zone longer than any other crankbait on the market. A claim we can still make today. Made from the top 7% of select balsa, this perfectly consistent wood is crafted into a tapered fuselage then precisely fitted with internal weights and matched with a custom lip. DT series lures come in a variety of profiles and swimming depths, allowing anglers to target any area from shallow to deep. These lures dive quickly to a preset depth and stay in the strike zone for the entire retrieve.

When fish are inactive and the strike zone is small, a lure that swims just a few feet above or below won’t get a second look. In these situations, you need to present your bait right in front of the fish, and this is where the DT series excels. Each of the six models are designed to hit a specific depth and stay there. Casts like a bullet and comes in several different body shapes, actions and colors to mimic a variety of forage shapes and patterns. Get down to business with the DT series.
