Product Description

Each lure in the DT series is constructed with premium balsa wood, carefully placed internal weights, a tapered fuselage, and a thin tail design for the ultimate in crankbait action. DT lures pull easily through the water and move with classic Rapala action. The internal weights make a rattle that's sure to grab the attention of nearby predators. Realistic 3D holographic eyes complete the lures authentic look. Perfect for targeting freshwater trophy gamefish.

The DT Classic's quick-dive resting position lets it sink down quickly to the set depth and stays there, swimming with a side-to-side, sound-emitting action. Can be easily cast to 150'. Comes equipped with an extra-thin polycarbonate lip and a pair of VMC Black Nickel Pyramid Point treble hooks. Target species: Bass, Walleye, Pike, Musky, Trout, Salmon, Panfish.

Bass fishing

Comments about Rapala® DT® Classic, 2-3/4":

The Rapala DT 16 series crank bait is one of the best I have ever used for catching bass. The action is great, the hooks are incredibly sharp, and the life like color patterns are out of this world. The bait is easy to fish and it dives to 16 feet just like it is supposed to do. It is definitley my go to bait when fish are hanging out in that 16 foot depth range.

Have not got to fish yet, waiting on camp ground to open for the year. The baits I bought are for summer time deep water bass fishing. Love Gander Mountain [...]

I started using this lure about 8:00am after fishing almost two hours with no success. On the second cast I caught a nice 3 pounder and it caught three more nice fish within the next couple of hours. My new favorite.

Great crank

By Bassin Kevin

from Columbus, OH

Pros

Gets deep fast
Targets big fish
very durable

Cons

Doesn't get the quantity

Best Uses

Deep rip-rap
Drop offs on lake points

Comments about Rapala® DT® Classic, 2-3/4":

Have to very much disagree with the previous review, I have trolled this bait and it has survived banging in the rocks as well as getting slammed by monster pike. But down here in the midwest in Ohio its tough to find a lot of fish to take a bait of this size. so its great to target just big fish.

This bluegill pattern is my favorite. I really really have to disagree with the previous review. rapala does not make inexpensive baits and what you get is usually of great quality.

Not a good buy

By Steelhead Jimmy

Looks natural

Cons

Crankbait lip brakes fast
Expensive
Paint chips easily

Best Uses

Use around grass

Comments about Rapala® DT® Classic, 2-3/4":

When I go out on the lake for a day of fishing, I expect the best out of what I buy. In this tough economic time, I want a crankbait that will last for at least a year or two. Unfortunately this crankbait does not cut it. I would not recommend this bait to anyone.
