COUNTDOWN ELITE CDE35 GDOK
incl. VAT, excl.
The Countdown Elite combines over 80 years of Rapala lure-making expertise into a compact 4.5 cm crankbait that excels at targeting perch and trout in shallow water down to 0.9 m.
The signature slow-sinking behaviour inherited from the original Countdown series allows you to count down to your target depth with precision. During the drop, the lure produces an irresistible flutter that mimics a wounded baitfish—exactly what cautious predators find hard to resist.
Modern wire-through construction paired with heavy-duty split rings ensures this lightweight 3.5 g bait handles aggressive strikes without compromising casting accuracy. The premium balsa body delivers maximum casting distance while maintaining the buoyancy needed for that distinctive fluttering descent. VMC Black Nickel trebles (2× size 12) provide reliable hook-ups.
The Countdown Elite range covers multiple sizes and colour patterns to match different conditions and target species.
4.5 cm / 3.5 g (CDE35) – GDOK: Ideal for perch and trout in clear to moderately stained water; shallow running depth of 0.9 m suits streams and lake margins
