Rapala Countdown Squid SQCD09 9cm 12g GRT

Rapala Countdown Squid SQCD09 – Target Cephalopods with Precision Depth Control

This balsa-bodied squid lure lets you apply Rapala's proven Countdown method to cephalopod fishing, sinking at approximately 30 cm per second for exact depth targeting.

Controlled Sink Rate for Strategic Presentations

The Countdown Squid descends predictably, allowing you to count down to your desired depth before beginning your retrieve. This precision is invaluable when squid and octopus hold at specific water columns along rocky structures or over varied bottom terrain.

Premium Double Hook Basket

Equipped with a double basket featuring 2×12 extra-sharpened stainless steel points, the SQCD09 ensures reliable hook-ups. The high-quality inox construction resists saltwater corrosion, maintaining performance trip after trip.

Choose the Right Variant

The Countdown Squid series offers two sizes to match conditions and target size.

• SQCD09 (9 cm, 12 g) – Compact profile for shallower waters, lighter tackle setups, or when targeting smaller cephalopods; ideal for casting from shore or boat in calmer conditions; GRT colour

• SQCD11 (11 cm, 16 g) – Larger size for deeper presentations around 3 m, heavier tackle, or when bigger squid are present; suited for slow trolling or reaching structure in current
