Rapala DT Series 3/5 Shad$10.06
Availability: In Stock
The Rapala DT Series 3/5 in Blue Shad is a balsa crankbait designed to reach and hold the strike zone efficiently on every cast. Built from premium balsa wood and engineered with a streamlined body and thin tail, this diving crankbait delivers the side-to-side swimming action that bass, pike, and walleye find hard to ignore. The 3/5 size dives quickly to a preset depth and stays working where the fish are, making it a go-to choice for anglers who want to cover water fast without burning battery on a trolling motor.
The DT series uses an ultra-thin polycarbonate lip to drive the bait down aggressively while the internal weight placement and tapered design keep the nose-down attitude that lets you cast 150 feet and gain extra bottom time on each retrieve. An internal baritone rattle provides acoustic attraction, and the Blue Shad finish comes with 3D holographic or painted eyes to trigger strikes in varying light conditions. Each lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested before it ships, so you're fishing a crankbait that's dialed in out of the box.
Whether you're working shallow structure, creek channels, or main-lake shelves, the DT 3/5 pulls predictably without requiring a heavy hand. The premium VMC black nickel hooks are ready for solid hooksets, and the balsa construction keeps the bait balanced and responsive even after a long day on the water. This is a workhorse crankbait built on proven Rapala genetics and made for anglers who want results, not just another lure in the tacklebox.
