Rapala DT Thug

damian2b · 04-08-10, 11:58 PM

Hi Everyone,

Was just curious if anyone has used the new Rapala DT Thug and if so what are your thoughts? I just picked one up today from BPS in Helsinki Shad color. Also I just noticed on the back of the package...like where the hole is so the lure can be placed on the shelf it says "Sufix fishing line recommended". Whats the deal with that? I guess I never noticed it before. Anyone hope everyone is doing well!

They have the Sufix line recommended on all of the new dt's.. Odds are rapala might have a controlling interest in Suffix. But I have heard nothing about it..

Regardless of what line the lips will still break..

I completely agree, about both things.

Rapala probably owns sufix, or the other way around, or they are both owned by a larger company.

Also, I will never buy another DT again. What a waste of money on baits that constantly break. I've only got a few left that are more than the the lips I've reeled in. I'll stick to my Bandits, thanks.

Rapala VMC does indeed own Sufix.
