Rapala DT Series 10' 3/5oz 2.25in Chartreuse Rootbeer Craw
The Rapala DT Series 10' diving crankbait is built for anglers who need a lure that reaches productive depths fast and stays working in the strike zone. At 3/5 oz and 2.25 inches, this Chartreuse Rootbeer Craw pattern delivers the quick descent and tight swimming action that makes the DT family a proven choice for bass, pike, and other predators. Hand-tuned and tank-tested before it leaves the factory, each lure is ready to fish—no tweaking required.
What sets the DT apart is its construction from premium balsa wood combined with a strategically designed internal weight system and thin polycarbonate lip. This combination lets the lure dive to its 10-foot target depth with minimal effort, then maintain that depth longer than typical crankbaits. The side-to-side swimming motion is a signature of quality balsa construction—you feel the action in the rod, and fish definitely see it. Despite its diving power, the DT casts easily to 150 feet, so you can cover more water and keep the lure in the feeding zone longer on every retrieve.
The Chartreuse Rootbeer Craw finish is a versatile choice for both clear and stained water conditions, while the internal baritone rattle adds an acoustic trigger that gets fish's attention. Premium VMC black nickel hooks come standard, offering reliable bite-through and corrosion resistance.
