Glowing with a luminous orange hue, this specimen showcases the classic lipless design Bill Lewis pioneered in the USA. Weighing in at 3/4oz (21g), the lure features a distinctive gold scale pattern across the shoulders that contrasts against the bright orange body. This Rat-L-Trap, identified by product code 17924, measures 3 1/2" (9cm) and is equipped with two dark-finished treble hooks. The oversized black 'eyes' on the forward section provide a striking focal point, while the interior houses the signature extra-loud rattles intended to be heard through a boat's hull. Its condition is rated a 5/5, showing clean finishes and sharp points. This heavier 3/4oz (21g) version is well-suited for covering large flats or vertical jigging in wintering holes. The tight wobbling action characteristic of the Bill Lewis line makes it a formidable choice when targeting bass or pike in stained water.
