This lure performs exactly as described. It sinks steadily and stays in place when fishing near weed lines. The slow roll is natural and attracts fish consistently. I’ve used it in both freshwater and saltwater environments with good results.

The sink rate is reliable and the action is smooth. It’s perfect for targeting fish in mid-water or near structure. The hook holds well and the balsa body doesn’t break easily.

I’ve tried several minnow lures, but the CountDown CD1 stands out for its consistent depth performance. It’s easy to cast and works well in both still and moving water.
