Rapala Ott Garage Slim 6' 1/2 2.75" Classic Crawdad
The Rapala Ott Garage Slim 6' 1/2 2.75" Classic Crawdad diving crankbait is built for anglers who want a hard bait that reaches deep structure and stays working in the strike zone. Crafted from premium balsa wood and engineered to dive fast to a preset depth, this crankbait combines the signature side-to-side action that only balsa construction delivers with the casting distance and depth control serious bass and pike hunters demand. At 2.75 inches and 1/2 ounce, the Slim profile cuts through the water with minimal effort while the ultra-thin polycarbonate lip digs down quickly and efficiently.
What sets the Ott Garage Slim apart is its internal weight distribution and tapered design. The bait is perfectly weighted to rest nose-down, allowing immediate descent to your target depth with each cast. The internal baritone rattle is tuned to produce the sound profile that triggers strikes, while 3D holographic or painted eyes add visual appeal in varying light conditions. Every lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested before it ships, so you're getting a crankbait that swims true right out of the box—no adjustments needed.
Whether you're working shallow flats or diving down to deeper structure, this crankbait can be cast 150 feet, letting you cover more water and extend your working time in the productive zone. VMC black nickel hooks come standard, delivering reliable hooksets when fish commit. If you fish with crankbaits and want a bait that dives fast, stays deep, and swims with confidence, the Rapala Ott Garage Slim in Classic Crawdad is a versatile choice for both freshwater bass tournaments and trophy pike hunting.
