Rapala DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits are crankbaits that dive quickly to a specific depth and stay in the “strike zone” longer than any other crankbait on the market. These lures are made from high-quality balsa wood and have internal weights, a tapered fuselage, and a thin tail design, creating a unique crankbait action that is only found in the DT family. The ultra-thin polycarbonate lip helps the bait dive quickly to the desired depth. The DT crankbaits have a side-to-side swimming action that only balsa crankbaits can achieve, allowing them to dive deep while still being easy to retrieve. The lures are perfectly weighted to rest in a nose-down position, which helps them quickly descend to the desired depth. The DT06 crankbaits can be cast up to 150 feet, which means they can cover more water and increase your chances of catching fish. They also feature an internal rattle that is tuned for the best sound performance. The lures come in various finishes with 3D holographic or painted eyes and are equipped with premium VMC SureSet tail hooks and black nickel belly hooks. Each lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested to ensure it swims perfectly right out of the box.
Rapala DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits also come in custom ink colors by Mike Iaconelli, a professional bass angler. These lures have three key traits that set them apart. First, they have purposefully muted colors, which Iaconelli achieved by exposing them to the sun on his truck's dashboard. These subtle colors can be incredibly effective when bass are not responding to traditional patterns. Second, Rapala polished the finishes of the lures to create a pearly finish, similar to the translucent candy apple red on a vintage car. Lastly, Iaconelli added super fine glitter to the lures, which adds depth to their appearance. Iaconelli believes in using something different and unique to catch more fish, and his Custom Ink DT's embody this philosophy. The custom ink colors available are Blue Back Herring, Caribbean Shad, Demon, Disco Shad, Mardi Gras, Old School, Penguin, and Smash.
