I finally managed to get me a DT FAT01, actually it's a DT FATSS01  Anyway, according to the Rapala website it should contain 'rattles' - but mine doesn't rattle!   I'm not sure if the factory forgot to put the rattles in or what - I even tried knocking it hard into the palm of my hand to 'loosen' the rattles but nothing.... Anybody else had a rattling lure that doesn't rattle? |

I did some more checking and most of the online tackle shops just repeat the info from the Rapala website which lumps all the DT's together implying that the DTFAT01 also has rattles. I checked out the Rapala DT-14 video (which also has a segment on the DTFAT01) and there is no mention about it having rattles. I just checked the boxes of the DTFAT01 and the DTF-03. Whilst the DTF-03 has 'rattles' written on the side of the box, the DTFAT01 box doesn't. So I guess that settles it. It still has tons of action and vibration though |

Yep, definitely doe not, it's just one big solid hunk of balsa. The FAT03's do have rattles, although it is very tiny and slight.
