Rapala DT-8: Bait Breakdown, Depth Test & Tricks

[@Hallerfishing]

Hey Jacob, I have tried it, use it all the time. Great plug. Anymore I’m throwing a fritzside most of the time on 10lb floro. I like the Berkley dredger as well. Appreciate your time and knowledge, I always learn something. Good luck this year, I’m certainly rooting for you buddy. God bless.

Won the Minnesota TBF TOC from the back of the boat last year mostly on this sucker in root beer craw. A bad bad dude

When I pond fish here in Indiana. I will only use the DT 6. It catches fish in The Red Craw. DT 8 is just to deep. I get that DT6 to dig into the bottom. Trying the baby bass color next. Good luck in the Tournament's. Shawn.

I just bought a duckett silverado 7'3" c and I absolutely love the action. Your line up is next man. So light and just perfect action. Want your 7' med heavy mod fast.

Love these repala videos. I went to the Bassmasters Classic trying to get this information without success! Thank you!

[@shanehamilton6708]

I love the dt 8! Green gizzard and red craw with the dark green back. Oh yeah chartreuse blue back as well. Still love the dt 6. Nobody talkes much about the DT4 but it’s fire as well

[@Matthiaskyriakidis]

Tough one on lake Murray, good luck in stage 4 and thanks for the tips! Love my Rapalas

Hey Jacob, what brand of sunglasses do you wear?

[@earljohnson3204]

Good information. This bait saved a really tough day for me last summer. Slick advertising 😊

[@conagemason2582]

love the tips i will have to try that next time i go out

[@dong8307]

Have several and really like them.

I picked up some of the DT 8's I noticed its the same profile as the DT 6 but obviously dives deeper and is a bit heavier... I was curious to know how deep it consistently runs... I fish alot on highland reservoirs and the rock crawler has done well for me so I thought the DT 8 would also smash... we'll see I guess!

[@mikebailey2119]

Jacob, you do a great job explaining how to use all these different baits. There is so much great information. Do you sharpen your hooks on the crank baits since they are hitting the bottom of the lake most of the time? Looking forward to your next tournament on the MLF tour.🎣🛎

[@rodcashman4793]

Great information thanks for sharing 🎣

[@chrischrist7982]

Love this video 💯

[@jenlvjim]

I have fished st Clair 6 times . What a fishery. If i lived where there are good smallmouth I would never fish for largemouth

[@miketorre16]

i have the DT8 in firetiger... still no hits yet here in CT from Fall to Spring.

[@jamesbarron1202]

[@jameslovelace8958]

[@jesustorrez4520]

Here on lake Huron it's fire now omg I caught the shit out of them today on the dt6-8 silver black back. Thanks bro your awesome and good luck

[@enonek2960]

Do you find that older crank baits like the Shad Rap, just lose their effectiveness after awhile?

[@WizCudder1]

Definitely not. They are still good and almost every staple “old bait” has its place and time.

[@enonek2960]

@@WizCudder1 Glad to hear it. I'll have to pull out some of my old ones and give them another go-round!

[@luevang9801]

Please address how flimsy these baits are after a few cranks on rocks. The balsa cracks and breaks along the bill.

[@jessevowell2554]

I’ve never had that problem and I’ve used them forever
