Vintage Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, 1/2oz fishing lure #16070

Gold marbled veining over a deep, glittery green base defines the aesthetic of this 1/2 oz (14 g) lipless crankbait. Produced by Bill Lewis and carrying product code 16070, the lure features the iconic flat-sided profile and molded dorsal fin that have made the Rat-L-Trap a staple since its origin in the USA. Measuring 3 inches (7.5 cm) in length, the body is rigged with two silver-finished treble hooks. The internal rattle chamber functions to broadcast sound through the water, particularly useful when navigating stained or dirty water. For cold-water applications, the design permits a vertical jigging presentation around deep structures and wintering holes. A 5/5 condition rating highlights the well-preserved nature of the sparkle finish and hardware. Long-distance casting remains a core benefit of the 1/2 oz weighting, facilitating broad coverage of open water.
