Rapala Countdown Magnum Crankbait 9cm 3.6–4.2m 17g Silver Blue

Rapala Countdown Magnum — Precision Depth Control for Trolling Predators

The Rapala Countdown Magnum CDM (Countdown Magnum) is a proven sinking hardbody wobbler built for serious trolling anglers who need to put their lure exactly where the fish are holding in the water column.

Controlled Sink Rate, Exact Depth Presentation

Unlike diving crankbaits that rely solely on speed for depth, the Countdown Magnum sinks at a controlled, predictable rate. This lets you count it down to your chosen depth before engaging the retrieve or trolling motor — ideal for targeting suspended predators holding mid-water in open water. At 17g and 9cm, this variant reaches a running depth of 3.6–4.2m, covering the productive mid-depth zone where pike, zander, and large perch frequently feed.

Abachi Wood Construction with Rust-Resistant Hardware

Rapala builds the Countdown Magnum from Abachi wood — a lightweight, tight-grained timber that gives the lure a naturally responsive wobble action. The body transmits every variation in current and speed into a tight, lifelike swimming motion that triggers reactive strikes from predatory fish. VMC Perma Steel treble hooks resist corrosion and maintain sharpness over extended use, while all components are rated for the stresses of repeated trolling sessions.
