RT 52 Chartreuse Shiner paint gives this 2 1/4" (6cm) lipless crankbait an intense visual presence, particularly effective in low-visibility conditions. This Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, identified by product code 7811, carries a weight of 2/5oz (12g) and is designed to sink steadily to reach deeper strike zones. Looking closely at the specimen, you'll see a vibrant chartreuse body paired with a sharp orange belly and a dark black face that highlights the blue eye. A signature black spot is positioned on the side, mimicking a distressed baitfish. The original hardware, including two silver-toned treble hooks, is in great shape, supporting a 5/5 condition rating for this well-preserved lure. Built with an internal rattle chamber, the lure generates significant sound during the retrieve to help fish track it from a distance. Whether you are casting for bass or jigging vertically for lake trout near wintering holes, the compact profile of this lure offers a reliable presentation across multiple species.
