Adorned with a vibrant green back and yellow sides featuring dark vertical bars, this lipless crankbait showcases a classic firetiger-inspired palette finished with a bright orange belly. Glowing prominently under low light, the UV finish on this Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap (Product Code 9568) is a specialized feature designed for visibility in deeper or stained water. This specimen weighs 1/2 oz (14 g) and measures 3" (7.5 cm) in length, making it a substantial choice for long-distance casting or vertical jigging. The internal construction includes extra-loud rattles designed to be heard over distance, paired with a tight wobbling action during the retrieve. Manufactured in the USA, the lure is equipped with two sharp silver treble hooks. Its condition is a solid 5/5, with the paint and hardware remaining in pristine shape. Anglers often utilize this model to target bass and pike, relying on its quick-sinking nature to reach fish holding near deep structures.
