Rapala CountDown Magnum Elite

The Rapala CountDown® Magnum Elite Series is precision-engineered for serious saltwater anglers targeting the toughest pelagic predators. Combining Rapala’s legendary CountDown® sinking system with upgraded materials and construction, these lures deliver unmatched durability, long casting distance, and precise depth control — so you can keep your bait exactly where the fish are feeding.

Built with through-wire construction, an Abachi wood body, and heavy-duty VMC® 4X Perma Steel hooks, each Magnum Elite can handle brutal offshore conditions. Whether trolling, casting, or drifting, they swim with a natural wounded-baitfish action that triggers explosive strikes from tuna, wahoo, mahi, and kingfish.
