Rapala Deep Squid DSQ09 9cm 3.3m 15g SFC

Rapala Deep Squid DSQ09 — Fast-Diving Balsa Lure for Cephalopod Fishing

Target squid and octopus near rocky bottoms with this purpose-built balsa lure that reaches depth quickly and stays in the strike zone.

Reaches Depth Fast

The oversized diving lip drives the Deep Squid down to 3.3 m rapidly, letting you work close to the seabed, rock ledges, and crevices where cephalopods hide. At slow trolling speeds, it maintains a consistent depth around 3 m—ideal for methodical coverage of productive structure.

Double Hook Basket for Secure Hookups

Two stainless-steel hook crowns with 2×12 extra-sharpened points provide reliable hook-setting power. The dual-basket design increases your chances of a solid connection when squid strike from any angle.
