    RE: DT series Rapalas

    i've been using these for a few years and the first year i broke several off from slapping them on the water to clean them off too. i quit doing that and havent broken one off since.

    RE: DT series Rapalas

    I have used the DT 16s and 10s, I think that is the shallower version, and I have had no problems at all.

    Good luck,

    Danny

    RE: DT series Rapalas

    I have been using them for a couple of years, but here lately the bills are either breaking off or they come loose enough to pull out of the crankbait. I am going to stop buying them because they are too expensive to break after one day of fishing. I think the DT 6's are the worst about breaking but I bought one of the new DT's and it broke after smacking the water to get a leaf off.

    RE: DT series Rapalas

    What series are you using? I've used the DT16 for a few years now and haven't ever had that problem and I bang the heck out of them on rocks!

    Ive lost about 4 or 5 until I realized it was from slapping them on the water to get the grass off, started babying them and havent lost one since

    You guys should get together and write Rapala about the problem. I bet they send replacements and they work on fixing the issue.
