Polished chrome sides catch the light on this 2/5oz (12g) classic, a staple for covering water quickly. This Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, identified by product code 19321, features the iconic shad-imitation profile with a deep blue back and a distinct black spot behind the gill area. Measuring 2 1/4" (6cm), the body is accented with a touch of red on the nose and tail, a subtle detail meant to mimic a wounded baitfish. The hardware remains strong, featuring two stout treble hooks ready for casting or vertical jigging presentations. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the specimen maintains a clean, reflective finish across its lipless body. Anglers often turn to this specific design when fishing stained water where the internal rattles provide necessary auditory cues for predators. The flat-sided construction is purpose-built for high-speed retrieves or working deep structure during the transition into cooler seasons.
