Description

The Rapala CountDown Elite CDE95 is a 95 mm, 14 g balsa sinking minnow running to around 1.2 m and armed with two No.8 trebles. A high-strength stainless steel through-body plate replaces the traditional wire for added strength and a lower centre of gravity, while an eco-conscious tungsten core weight boosts casting distance by roughly 20% over a standard CountDown.

Its flat-sided profile delivers a sharp dart action on the twitch, and the CountDown series' trademark dimple lip bites into the water for a stable swim that holds together even in fast current. Suited to trout, seabass and bass fishing across a wide range of venues.

What makes it different

Built to fish, not just to sell

The swimming action

A flat-sided body and dimpled lip give the Elite a sharp dart on the twitch and a stable, tight swim that holds together in faster current, helped by a tungsten core weight and a lower centre of gravity than the standard CountDown.

When to throw it

Suited to trout, seabass and bass fishing wherever a durable, hard-jerking minnow is needed, including faster water where lesser sinking minnows lose their action.

How to work it

Fish it with a steady retrieve for a tight swim, or add sharp twitches for a hard side-to-side dart; the through-body wire and tungsten weighting hold up well to repeated aggressive jerking.
