New Ott-inspired colours for his bass-approved line-up
Rapala US pro Ott Defoe has been working hard in his garage designing five new bass-approved colour patterns for his OG Slim 6 line-up of baits.
“I’ve been painting and testing my own lure patterns in my garage for several years,” says Ott. The OG (Ott’s Garage) model is a non-rattling, easy-casting crankbait that swims with a medium wobble and tight, side-to-side action. It sports a light, circuit board lip and dives to six feet when fishing on 12lb test line.
The five new colour patterns are:
• Bream: Blackish-blue back with scale pattern, green and yellow sides with black shad spot and orange throat.
• Copper Green Shad: Green with brown scale pattern with black shad spot; pearl white body and orange throat.
• Hot Copper Green Shad: Green with brown scale pattern with black shad spot, chartreuse sides and belly and orange throat.
• Classic Craw: Black back, red sides with crawfish-scale pattern and orange belly.
• Coosa Special: Brown-black back, yellow sides with scale pattern and two vertical stripes with scale pattern and orange throat and underside of tail section. “This colour could be a dynamite one,” say Ott.
