Museum Archive: Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza, 3/16oz Green/yellow fishing lure #19765

At 3/16oz (4.5g), the lure's compact, dense body is perfectly weighted for exploration throughout the water column. The Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza, identified by product code 19765, features a striking green and yellow finish that shifts into a warm orange-red hue along the ventral side. Hand-detailed markings, including a distinctive black spot and simulated gill lines, give this small 1 1/2" (4cm) bait a lifelike appearance. Because it is rated at a condition 6, the lure remains in unused state, showing no signs of wear on its original bronzed treble hooks or paint. This specific lipless model functions as a noise bait, designed for variable depths when employed in casting or trolling. The dorsal placement of the attachment eye ensures the bait maintains its posture during the retrieve, whether you are targeting perch, trout, or asp. Each component, from the split rings to the textured body, reflects the quality expected from a vintage Cotton Cordell piece manufactured in the USA.
