Vintage Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, 1/2oz RT 25 Nickel Black Back fishing lure #24189

Nickel and silver tones dominate the finish of this 1/2oz (14g) lipless crankbait, designated by Bill Lewis as the RT 25 Nickel Black Back colorway. Measuring 3" (7.5cm), this specimen shows the classic profile that has served anglers since the brand's inception in the USA. The surface displays some honest wear from its time on the water, earning it a solid condition rating of 4/5, with visible surface scratches and some thinning of the pinkish-red accent along the throat and belly. Equipped with the legendary heavy rattling chambers associated with product code 24189, the lure provides the signature high-frequency sound designed to trigger aggressive strikes. The hardware includes standard split rings and two treble hooks that show some darkening but remain intact. Its tight wobbling action is a result of the weighted body and flat-top head design. A bright yellow eye with a dark pupil provides a distinct target point at the front of the silver-flaked body.
