The Rapala DT08 Dives-To Crankbaits are designed to dive quickly to a specific depth and stay in the “strike zone” longer than other crankbaits. These lures are made from high-quality balsa wood, carefully weighted, and feature a streamlined body and thin tail, all of which contribute to their unique crankbait action. The ultra-thin polycarbonate lip allows the lure to dive rapidly to the desired depth. The DT cranks with a side-to-side swimming action that is characteristic of balsa crankbaits, making it effective at deep trolling while still remaining easy to pull.
The DT08 is perfectly weighted to rest in a nose-down position, enabling it to descend quickly to the desired depth. Its design allows for long-distance casting of up to 150 feet, ensuring that the lure stays in the strike zone for a longer period. These crankbaits come in a variety of attractive finishes, such as 3D holographic or painted eyes, and are equipped with premium VMC SureSet tail hook and black nickel belly hook for maximum effectiveness. Each lure is meticulously hand-tuned and tested in tanks to ensure it swims perfectly right out of the box.
Rapala also offers a special series of DT06 Dives-To Crankbaits with custom ink colors by professional bass angler Mike “Ike” Iaconelli. These lures feature a unique combination of muted colors, polished finishes for a natural look, and super fine glitter for added depth in appearance. Ike's Custom Ink DT's are designed to stand out and provide something different to attract more fish. The colors available in this series are Blue Back Herring, Caribbean Shad, Demon, Disco Shad, Mardi Gras, Old School, Penguin, and Smash.
