The Rapala CountDown 12g is a 9 cm long, sinking balsa wood lure. Rapala CountDown lures always reach fish at various depths thanks to the CountDown method. Whether the fish are suspending at a certain depth, above weeds, or near bottom structures, the CountDown will help you reach them. The weight distribution creates a slow, rolling Rapala action.
The CountDown method, first introduced by this lure, has become a standard technique used by many anglers. It has proven especially effective for catching salmon, large trout, zander, and perch.
The slow-sinking, controlled-depth method allows you to place the lure directly in the feeding zone where fish are located – whether near weeds or close to bottom structures for deeper-feeding fish. Of course, this balanced lure is suitable for both trolling and for casting and retrieving in the classic style.

✅ Balsa wood construction
✅ Individually tuned swimming action
✅ Controlled-depth technique
✅ Wide range of sizes
✅ VMC black nickel hooks
✅ Hand-tuned and tank-tested
