Greenish-olive tones and dark spots define the RT 18 Trout Classic pattern on this 2 1/4" (6 cm) lipless lure. Coming from the renowned Bill Lewis lineup, this specimen carries the Product Code 8482 and tips the scales at 2/5 oz (12 g). The paint job includes a distinctive orange chin highlight, adding a subtle strike point to the natural profile. It is presented in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally well-preserved with a clear, clean finish. This model's construction is centered around its internal extra-loud rattles, a technical feature designed to be heard even through the hull of a boat. The hardware features two sturdy treble hooks, well-suited for a variety of species from bass to lake trout. Anglers frequently utilize these lures for both long-distance casting and vertical jigging when fish are hugging deep structure during the colder months.
