Rapala DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits are known for their fast diving ability and ability to stay in the “strike zone” for longer periods of time compared to other crankbaits on the market. These crankbaits are made from high-quality balsa wood, with only the top seven percent of the wood being used. The combination of the perfect wood, strategically placed internal weights, tapered fuselage, and thin tail design result in the ultimate crankbait action, which is unique to the DT family.
The ultra-thin polycarbonate lip allows the bait to quickly dive down to the desired depth. The DT cranks have a side-to-side swimming action that is only achievable with balsa crankbaits. They can dive deep and still be easily pulled. The baits are perfectly weighted to rest in a nose-down position, which allows for immediate descent to the desired depth. These crankbaits can be cast up to 150 feet, and the farther the cast, the longer the bait will stay in the strike zone. This makes them an effective tool for covering more water and catching more fish.
The DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits come with an internal baritone rattle that is tuned for the best sound performance. They are available in a variety of finishes, including 3D holographic or painted eyes. The lures are equipped with premium VMC SureSet tail hooks and black nickel belly hooks. Each bait is hand-tuned and tank-tested to ensure perfect swimming action right out of the box.
There is also a special series of Rapala DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits with custom ink colors by Mike Iaconelli, a renowned bass angler. These lures have three key traits that make them unique. First, they feature purposefully muted colors that Iaconelli used to achieve by exposing them to sunlight on his truck's dashboard. The subtle colors can be highly effective when bass are not responding to conventional patterns. Second, the finishes of these lures have been polished to create a natural, pearly appearance, similar to a translucent candy apple red on a 57′ Chevy. And finally, the lures are adorned with super fine glitter that adds depth to their appearance. Iaconelli's philosophy behind these custom ink colors is to “use something different, something unique to catch more fish.”
The Mike Iaconelli Custom Ink Colors series of DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits include Blue Back Herring, Caribbean Shad, Demon, Disco Shad, Mardi Gras, Old School, Penguin, and Smash.
