Museum Archive: Vintage Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, 2/5oz fishing lure #10063

Copper-toned chrome finishes like the one on this 2 1/4" (6 cm) specimen were designed specifically to flash and grab attention in stained water. Identified by product code 10063, this Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap carries the classic lipless silhouette that changed the game for long-distance casting. Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), the lure is weighted to sink quickly, making it a reliable choice for reaching deeper structures where bass and pike often wait. A bold black lateral spot and a distinct red splash near the eye provide high-contrast targets for predators. Given a condition rating of 4/5, the body shows light signs of use but maintains its structural integrity and reflective quality. Two sharp treble hooks are attached via secure hangers, while a sturdy split ring is mounted on the dorsal edge for your line connection.
