Museum Archive: Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza, 1/3oz Wounded Tiger Shad fishing lure #20752

Sporting a Wounded Tiger Shad pattern, this lipless crankbait features a vibrant green back with dark horizontal striping that transitions into a bright yellow belly. Weighing 1/3 oz (9 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), the Cotton Cordell Bait Bonanza (product code 20752) is an unused specimen made in the USA. The design includes "bleeding" red spots along the bottom and a signature black dot behind the head, intended to mimic a distressed baitfish. Equipped with two bronze-finished treble hooks, this sinking rattle bait is suitable for variable depths depending on the retrieve, whether used for casting or trolling. Deep red eyes provide a focal point against the yellow and green head, while the internal rattle adds an auditory dimension to its physical presence. The lure is recommended for a variety of species including pike, perch, and trout.
