Museum Archive: Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza, 1/3oz Citruse fishing lure #20013

A vibrant "Citruse" pattern covers the upper half of this lipless sinking lure, blending a green scale motif into a pale yellow and white midsection. This Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza, identified by product code 20013, measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) and weighs 1/3 oz (9 g). The head features a distinct orange throat accent and a yellow eye with a black pupil, complemented by a large black spot along the flank. Designed as a noise-producing rattle bait, it allows for variable depth coverage depending on the retrieve speed and countdown, making it effective for both casting and trolling across the water column. This specific specimen is unused and earns a condition rating of 6. The belly transitions to a solid chartreuse yellow, while the hardware consists of two sharp, bronze-finished treble hooks. It remains a classic choice for targeting a wide variety of predators like perch, zander, and pike.
