Silver scales and bold black scale-pattern markings give this vintage Cotton Cordell Big O its classic look. Measuring 2" (5 cm) and weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), the model 5031 remains a cornerstone for anglers targeting pike, perch, or asp. The body features the iconic "Cordell" script stamped on the flank, paired with a bright yellow eye that pops against the silver finish. Equipped with a sturdy clear diving lip and two original treble hooks, the construction is solid for casting applications. This specimen is in 4/5 condition, exhibiting a well-preserved finish and clean hardware. Designed as a floating lure, it is optimized for shallow to mid-water exploration where its physical profile imitates small baitfish.
