Rapala Deep Squid DSQ09 9cm 3.3m 15g GT

Rapala Deep Squid DSQ09 – Dive Deep for Cephalopods

A balsa-bodied squid lure engineered to reach bottom-hugging calamari and octopus near rocks, ledges, and crevices where they hide.

Rapid Descent to Productive Depths

The oversized diving lip drives the Deep Squid down to approximately 3.3 m quickly and keeps it tracking true along the seabed. Ideal for slow-trolling sessions where maintaining contact with structure is key.

Premium Double-Basket Hook System

Two stainless-steel hook crowns with 2×12 extra-sharpened points ensure reliable hook-ups on soft-bodied cephalopods. The corrosion-resistant construction stands up to saltwater use.

Choose the Right Variant

All DSQ09 variants share the same 9 cm body, 15 g weight, and 3.3 m running depth—colour is the main differentiator. Match your choice to water clarity and local prey patterns:

• GT – versatile natural tone for clear to moderately turbid water

• GRT – subtle variation for overcast days or dawn/dusk sessions

• GGT – alternative natural palette

• GBT – natural finish suited to rocky ground

• CG – classic neutral option

• BRH – warmer hue for varied light conditions

• HP – high-visibility pattern

• HT – bright accent colour

• PTU – purple-tinted for deeper or darker water

• BSRD – bolder flash pattern

• SFC – flashy finish for attracting attention

• OTU – orange-tinted option

• FT – contrasting flash colour
