Smoky blue-grey scales transition into a clean white belly on this compact specimen, representing a classic finish in the Cotton Cordell lineup. Measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm) and weighing a nimble 1/8 oz (4 g), this Cotton Cordell Big O is a prime example of the smaller-frame lures used for targeting perch, pike, and asp. The underside is clearly embossed with the brand name, identifying its USA manufacturing heritage. Identified by product code 7494, it features vibrant red eyes and two original treble hooks that remain bright and structurally sound. The short diving lip is engineered for shallow-water work, reaching depths of 3 ft (0.9 m) during a steady casting retrieve. Its preservation is noteworthy, showing a clean exterior and solid hardware that earns a 5/5 condition rating. This particular unit maintains the high-quality craftsmanship associated with the Big O series, which famously pioneered the square-bill concept in the crankbait world.
