Description / Rapala Countdown Elite
The Rapala Countdown Elite is a modern evolution of a classic lure, designed for anglers who demand the ultimate in casting distance, precision, and controlled-depth presentation. This premium sinking minnow takes the legendary Countdown action to a new level.
Rapala is a name synonymous with fishing excellence, a brand born from the hands of Finnish fisherman Lauri Rapala in the 1930s. Today, Rapala maintains its tradition of quality and is celebrated worldwide for producing the most effective, hand-tuned, and hand-tested lures on the market. The Countdown Elite is a testament to this legacy of innovation.
The lure body is carefully carved from a piece of premium balsa wood, known for its incredible buoyancy and lifelike vibration. The unique, controlled-sinking action is achieved by a new, advanced internal weighting system that allows for enhanced casting distance. After assembly, each and every lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested to ensure it swims with the perfect "wounded minnow" action that has made Rapala famous.
The key feature of the Countdown Elite is its new, modern design. It features a unique, internal weighting system that not only maintains the classic one-foot-per-second sink rate but also dramatically improves casting distance and accuracy. This allows you to precisely target fish holding at any depth, even in windy conditions. On the retrieve, the lure's classic injured-minnow wobble and slow-fluttering action are a powerful trigger for a strike. The lure is finished with a stunning, durable paint job and comes equipped with ultra-sharp VMC treble hooks, ensuring a solid hook-up.
The Rapala Countdown Elite is available in a variety of lengths and weights to suit different fishing conditions and target species. It is offered in a comprehensive range of realistic and vibrant finishes, ensuring there is a perfect colour for any water clarity or light condition.
