Floating Lure DUO Realis Crank Kabuki Bottom Rush 48 MR - 5 cm

Product highlights

The DUO Realis Crank Kabuki Bottom Rush 48 MR is a medium runner crankbait engineered to deliver an effective swimming action within an intermediate depth range. Its main strength lies in maintaining a highly attractive action even at very slow retrieve speeds. Whether you favor slow, precise retrieves or moderate power-fishing, this crankbait is ready to perform immediately.

Thanks to its compact design and refined profile, this hard bait for predators casts easily and remains stable during retrieval. It enables quick coverage of water while staying controllable, making it an ideal choice to work different zones: edges, breaks, lightly snagged areas or shallow shelves.

The Realis Crank Kabuki Bottom Rush 48 MR is built to transmit strong visual and vibratory signals. Its tight, steady action attracts wary fish, while its ability to work close to the bottom triggers reflex strikes from fish holding on hard substrates or at structure margins.

Advantages and strengths

The primary advantage of the Realis Crank Kabuki Bottom Rush 48 MR is its versatility. Its ability to reach roughly 2 to 2.3 m allows targeting many holding areas: baitfish schools, pronounced breaks, shelf edges, rocky zones or mixed bottoms. You can adapt your prospecting without constantly switching lures.

Its action kicks in instantly from the first turns of the reel, which is especially valuable in cold water or when fish are sluggish. Being able to animate a predator crankbait very slowly while retaining an attractive action is a major asset to provoke strikes in difficult conditions.

Another strong point: this crankbait provides clear feedback through the rod. Vibrations transmitted to the blank let you feel whether the lure is working correctly, touching bottom or skimming an obstacle. That feedback helps control depth and trajectory, reducing hang-ups while keeping the lure close to fish feeding zones.

Finally, the care put into the overall design of this DUO crankbait makes it a reliable tool for regular anglers and beginners alike. It performs well across approaches: fast area coverage, slow fishing over precise spots, or alternating retrieve speeds to trigger opportunistic strikes.

Usage tips

To get the best from the DUO Realis Crank Kabuki Bottom Rush 48 MR, use a rod with a rather moderate or regular-fast action, which will absorb the lure's vibrations and fish head shakes. A standard casting or spinning reel, spooled with suitable nylon or fluorocarbon line, will allow easy control of diving depth.

Start with a slow to moderate steady retrieve to take full advantage of the attractive low-speed action. Once at the desired depth, vary the rhythm slightly—introduce short pauses or accelerations to provoke reaction strikes. In shallow-bottom zones, let the lure graze structure without overdoing it to limit snags.

This medium runner crankbait is especially effective for combing edges, ledge heads, transition zones hard-bottom/soft-bottom or marked breaks. Try changing the casting angle to present the bait differently and find the most productive trajectory.

During high activity periods you can speed up the retrieve to cover more water. Conversely, in cold conditions or on wary fish, favor a slow, steady animation, taking advantage of the lure’s ability to keep an appealing action at very low speeds.
