Adorned in the warm RT 114 Pumpkin Seed pattern, this 2 1/4" (6cm) lipless crankbait is a classic example of the American-made tackle from the Bill Lewis workshops. The finish on this specific specimen is exceptionally well-preserved, showing a rich transition from a dark chocolate spine to a vibrant orange belly, earning it a clear 5/5 condition rating. Weighing 2/5 oz (12g), the lure's design incorporates the signature extra-loud rattle chamber intended to be heard through a boat's hull during the retrieve. A prominent dark spot is painted just behind the eye, mimicking a natural forage fish, while the hardware consists of two bright treble hooks. This Rat-L-Trap, identified by product code 7845, is designed to sink quickly for deep-water coverage or vertical jigging applications. The tight wobbling action is engaged upon a steady retrieve, making it a reliable tool for locating bass and other predators in both stained and clear water conditions.
