Rapala Ott Garage Rocco 5' Helsinki Shad

Rapala Ott's Garage OG Rocco 5' – Helsinki Shad

Born from the sawdust of Ott DeFoe's garage, the Rapala OG Rocco is a buoyant, round balsa crankbait built for anglers who demand precision and performance. Featuring a square circuit board lip, the Rocco is highly castable with a medium rolling action that deflects naturally off cover and backs out of sticky situations.

Key Features

• Round balsa body — buoyant, responsive, and built for deflection
• Square circuit board lip — deflects off rocks, wood, and cover with ease
• Medium rolling action — triggers reaction strikes on the retrieve
• Highly castable design for accurate presentations
• Helsinki Shad color — a Rapala signature pattern with a translucent, natural baitfish finish that produces in clear water conditions

How to Fish It

Cast the OG Rocco tight to cover and work it with a steady retrieve, letting the square lip deflect off rocks, wood, and structure. The buoyant balsa body rises on pauses, triggering strikes from bass holding in and around cover.

Designed by tournament pro Ott DeFoe, the OG Rocco is built for the angler who fishes hard and expects results.
