Both casting and trolling are supported. The large diving lip produces the deep-running presentation and maintains the swimming action at higher speeds, so you can choose either technique rather than treating it as a trolling-only lure.
TDD07 is 7 cm and 9 g with two #6 trebles, TDD09 is 9 cm and 13 g with two #4 trebles, and TDD11 is 11 cm and 22 g with #3 trebles. Choose the body size you want and check that its weight suits your tackle, as the larger version is also heavier and has larger hooks.
Yes, the Deep Tail Dancer is floating, not suspending. Its banana-shaped balsa body has a wide tail-swimming action and pronounced rolling movement, with an internal rattle adding sound. Choose it for an active, audible presentation rather than a silent or suspending lure.
No. TDD07 has S, RH, BLT and BFL, while TDD09 also has SFL, FLP, GTU, RDT, PRT, ROL and HT. TDD11 adds FYP and the named Goldfish, Live Perch, Orange Tiger and Orange Tiger UV options. Select the size first, then choose from its finishes rather than assuming that every colour comes in all three sizes.
The TDD11 is explicitly described for pike, zander and perch in deeper water. At 11 cm and 22 g, it is the largest presentation here, so choose it when that lure size and weight fit your planned predator fishing and tackle.
Use pliers when attaching or removing it because the treble hooks are sharp. Inspect the lure and line connection before use, and store it in a separate, closed, dry tackle box. This reduces tangling and injury risk and helps limit hook corrosion.

The Rapala Deep Tail Dancer is a floating balsa crankbait for casting and trolling in deeper water. Its large diving lip takes the lure down while the banana-shaped body produces a wide tail-swimming action and pronounced rolling movement. The TDD11 is expressly offered for pike, zander and perch.
The large, stable diving lip maintains the lure's action even at higher speeds, making the line suitable for both retrieved and trolled presentations. The balsa body combines floating buoyancy with the characteristic wide tail action. An internal rattle adds sound to the moving lure. Black Nickel treble hooks provide the hooking points, with VMC® hooks specified in Rapala's family description. Rapala also specifies hand tuning and tank testing to check the lure's action.
TDD07 measures 7 cm and weighs 9 g, with two #6 treble hooks. It is the smallest and lightest option in this family. TDD09 measures 9 cm and weighs 13 g, with two #4 trebles, offering an intermediate body size and weight. TDD11 measures 11 cm and weighs 22 g, with #3 trebles. Choose it when you want the largest and heaviest presentation in the line, rather than the smaller TDD07 or TDD09. Match the lure weight to your tackle's stated casting range.
The finishes vary by size. TDD07 is available in S, RH, BLT and BFL. TDD09 adds SFL, FLP, GTU, RDT, PRT, ROL and HT to those codes. TDD11 also offers FYP, Goldfish, Live Perch, Orange Tiger and Orange Tiger UV. Its supplied full colour names include Silver Flash (SFL), Blue Flash (BFL), Flash Perch (FLP), Flash Yellow Perch (FYP), Green Tiger UV (GTU), Red Tiger (RDT), Hot Tiger (HT) and Bleeding Tiger (BLT). The colour range was selected by the Rapala Pro Staff Team and tested in competition. Choose the model size first, then the available finish. No particular water clarity or light condition is specified for these colours.
The TDD11 is supplied as one lure in the selected colour, not a colour assortment.
The treble hooks are sharp. Use pliers when attaching or removing the lure, check the body, hooks and line connection before use, and do not fish with a damaged lure. Store it in a separate, closed tackle box and keep the box dry to reduce hook corrosion. Keep it away from unsupervised children and pets, ensure the casting area is clear, and follow local fishing regulations.
