Rapala Countdown Magnum Crankbait 7cm 2.7–3.3m 12g Green Mackerel

Rapala Countdown Magnum — Precision Depth Control for Trolling Predators

The Rapala Countdown Magnum (CDM) is a handcrafted Abachi wood hardbody sinking wobbler built for anglers who need to put a bait at a precise depth and keep it there. The 7 cm / 12 g Green Mackerel variant runs true at 2.7–3.3 m, making it an ideal trolling choice when predators are holding in the mid-water column.

Controlled Sink Rate, Consistent Running Depth

Unlike buoyant crankbaits that need weight or line pressure to dive, the Countdown Magnum sinks on a counted retrieve, letting you dial in exactly where in the water column you want to fish. Once trolling speed is reached, it locks into its 2.7–3.3 m depth band and holds there — giving you the confidence to cover structure, thermoclines, or baitfish layers methodically.

Classic Rapala Wobble That Triggers Bites

Carved from Abachi wood, the body produces the tight, rolling wobble action Rapala has built its reputation on. This lifelike movement, combined with the realistic Green Mackerel finish, imitates small forage fish convincingly. Corrosion-resistant components and VMC Perma Steel treble hooks mean the lure stands up to repeated use in both fresh and salt water.
