Rapala Countdown lure 7 cm 8 g Brown Trout
The sinking balsa wood lure Rapala Countdown in the natural Brown Trout pattern is the premier tool for targeting fish suspended at specific depths or holding near the bottom. Weighing 8 grams, it delivers exceptional casting distance even in windy conditions and sinks at a consistent, predictable rate. During both retrieve and sink phases, it generates a classic wounded-minnow rolling action during spinning, tempting trophy trout, pike, zander, and large perch out of deep structure.
