Rapala Countdown Squid SQCD11 11cm 3m 16g BSRD

Rapala Countdown Squid SQCD11 — Target Cephalopods with Precision Depth Control

The Countdown Squid lets you apply Rapala's proven Countdown method to squid and octopus fishing. Cast, count the sink rate, and work the strike zone with pinpoint accuracy.

Controlled Sink Rate for Targeted Depths

Built from lightweight balsa, this lure sinks at approximately 30 cm per second, allowing you to count down to the exact depth where cephalopods are holding. Whether you're working rocky structure or open water, you stay in the productive zone longer.

Double Hook Basket for Secure Hookups

Equipped with a dual stainless steel hook basket featuring 2×12 ultra-sharp points, the Countdown Squid provides reliable hooksets on soft-bodied targets. The inox construction resists corrosion in saltwater environments.

Choose the Right Variant

The Countdown Squid is available in two sizes and multiple colour patterns. Select based on target size, water clarity, and local preferences.
