COUNTDOWN ELITE CDE55 GDCY
incl. VAT, excl.
Over 80 years of lure-making expertise distilled into a premium balsa crankbait that sinks with an irresistible fluttering action.
The Countdown Elite maintains the legendary controlled slow-sinking behaviour of the original Rapala CountDown series. With a running depth of 0.9 m, you can count down to your desired depth and work the strike zone where perch and trout are holding. The seductive flutter on the drop triggers strikes from wary fish that ignore conventional retrieves.
Modern construction techniques deliver maximum casting distance and pinpoint accuracy without sacrificing the lively action only premium balsa can provide. Heavy-duty split rings and wire-through construction handle hard-fighting fish, while 2× VMC 7554 Black Nickel treble hooks (size 12) ensure reliable hook-ups.
The Countdown Elite series covers a range of sizes and colours to match local forage and fishing conditions.
CDE35 (4.5 cm, 3.5 g): Ultra-finesse presentations for pressured trout streams and small perch in clear water
CDE55 (5.5 cm, 5 g): Versatile mid-size option balancing castability and subtle profile – ideal for trout and perch in rivers, streams and lakes; Gilded Chartreuse Yamame excels in stained water or low-light conditions
