Rapala Otto''s Garage

Rapala’s Ott’s Garage is a series of balsa-bodied floating crankbaits developed from Ott DeFoe’s lure-building designs. The OG Tiny 4 is a finesse-oriented model that combines a thin, flat-sided body with a lightweight circuit-board lip. It produces a tight action with reduced water displacement while maintaining sensitivity when contacting the bottom. Featuring a rattle-free, silent design, it measures 5.5 cm, weighs 9 g, and dives to 1.2 m. Its buoyancy allows it to be used for covering a specific depth with a steady retrieve, as well as retrieving while feeling changes in the bottom with the lip. It is equipped with two No. 5-class treble hooks.

The OG Rocco 5 features a rounded, highly buoyant balsa body fitted with a lightweight circuit-board square bill. It has a larger body than the Tiny 4, measuring 6 cm, weighing 10 g, and diving to 1.5 m. With a moderate wobbling action and high buoyancy, its square bill helps deflect off rocks and cover, while its buoyancy when paused allows the angler to avoid snagging. It also features a rattle-free, silent design and is suited to working cover with a steady retrieve. It is equipped with two No. 4-class treble hooks. The OG Tiny 4 is suited to applications requiring a compact profile and tight action, while the OG Rocco 5 is designed for anglers who prioritize cover-deflection performance derived from its body size, buoyancy, and bill shape.
