new dt colors

[Vinny Chase]

definately don't smack the dt's on the water gettin weeds off. the lips will break off for sure doing that.

That's the only way I have heard of them breaking..

Well apparently the 50+ dt's that I have were built differently then everyone else's :-/

i doubt it. its possible youre softer on your baits.

They don't like bridge pillars, dock posts, or rocks either.

[Grey Wolf]

I dont understand why everyone is so down on DT's. They have produced the most fish for me and I have never had a problem with durability....Maybe it has to with with brand loyalty, but they will continue to be my go to crank until I find a reason to switch.

That's why I quit buying them , just too d**n fragile.

So go buy a lucky craft for 16 bux and lose it in some brush or buy ya some normans or strike kings for 3.99 that run straight 20% of the time :

Your right I don't fish many rock piles, but mostly vegetation. Even with that said I still have never had one break...just saying

The only DT I've ever broken was when I was trying to get a very long cast to parallel a bridge piling and drilled it directly into said piling!

I broke a Pointer on the same piling a month before that, doing the same thing. :'(

Otherwise I bounce mine of rock and timber all day long and have never broke one. Yet.

As they say...to each his own. I've broken a few DT's but I'm going to keep using them caus they flat out catch fish for me, more than other cranks,even Lc's which cost way more. And they run true, period. And I can't wait to try a couple of the new colors!
