It is a sinking balsa wobbler designed for precise casting and controlled depth coverage, especially for trout and perch fishing.
Choose smaller sizes for finer trout and perch fishing, calm conditions and subtle presentations. Choose larger sizes when you want more casting weight, a bigger profile and more presence in the water.
The Countdown Elite is a sinking lure with a controlled sink rate and a fluttering drop, which helps you work specific depths consistently.
Supplier information points mainly to trout and perch, though the larger sizes can also appeal to other freshwater predators depending on the presentation.

The Rapala Countdown Elite is a premium balsa wobbler for anglers who want long, accurate casts and a controlled sinking presentation. It keeps the classic CountDown character, then adds a modern body construction, metallic finishes and durable hardware.
The lure sinks in a controlled way and flutters as it drops, which helps you cover specific depths with confidence. This makes it useful for trout, perch and other freshwater predators when you want to fish methodically through the water column.
Rapala uses a balsa body to give the lure a lively response in the water. Combined with the detailed plated and printed finishes, the bait offers a natural profile with extra flash in clear conditions.
The modern construction is designed for casting distance and accuracy. That helps when you need to reach current seams, undercut banks or feeding fish at range without losing control of the presentation.
Heavy-duty split rings, wire-through construction and VMC black nickel trebles give the lure a solid setup for repeated fishing. The Countdown Elite is made to stay dependable when worked actively for trout and perch.
This range includes several body sizes and weights, plus multiple colour patterns. Choose the smaller models for finer trout and perch fishing, or step up in size when you want more casting weight, a larger profile and a stronger visual signal.
