Short overview

The Rapala Countdown Elite CDE95 is a premium balsa вобbler designed for lure anglers looking for precise action, controlled slow sinking, and long casting distance. It is ideal for trout and perch fishing in rivers, streams, and lakes, especially when you want to cover different water layers.

Description

The Countdown Elite CDE95 model upgrades the legendary Rapala CountDown series with a more modern construction and attractive finish. Thanks to its controlled sink rate of approximately 1 ft per second (30 cm per second), the lure can be worked very precisely at the desired depth. It performs excellently with twitch techniques, stop&go retrieves, and classic steady retrieves, while the flutter effect on the fall often triggers strikes from cautious fish.
