hello i have been throwing a dt 16 from the shore i have read the rapala dts are great crankbaits so thought i would give it a try. i only made 3 casts every one i got a ton of grass as soon as it would hit water few cranks and hooked on the grass. is there a certain place you fish these. i keep getting hooked on the grass. i thought you wanted to be in grassy areas with these. im not sure how deep it is maybe 6 foot. another lake i fish at is about 22" thats why i got the dive to 16. would be nice to try this out without the weed problem.

DT16 (meaning Dives-To 16) are meant to dive to 16 ft (although they really only dive 13-14 ft. consistently). Try a Rapala DT-6 (Dives to 6 Feet) in that situation or a squarebill crankbait (such as a KVD 1.5 or KVD 2.5). Those will all dive the appropriate depth.
