Shades of grey transition from a dark charcoal back to a light silver-grey belly on this 3" (7.5cm) lipless crankbait. Representing the classic Smokey Joe finish, the body features a prominent black spot behind the yellow-rimmed eye and subtle red accents at the nose and tail tips. This particular Bill Lewis specimen, bearing product code 8080, weighs 1/2oz (14g) and remains in superb condition, rated 5/5. The lure's internal chamber houses extra-loud rattles designed to produce a signature sound that travels through the water. Its original silver-finished treble hooks and split rings are bright and show no signs of previous use. Manufactured in the USA, the sinking design allows for deep-water coverage during casting or vertical presentations.
