Silver chrome finishes on these vintage topwater baits often tell a story of many casts, as seen on this specimen with its characteristic wear patterns near the painted eyes and along the midsection. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) and weighing in at 1/3 oz (9 g), this USA-made rarity features the classic dual-propeller design characteristic of the mid-century casting era. The surface shows some light, honest signs of use, earning it a solid 4/5 condition rating. Designed as a floating surface lure for species like bass and pike, it operates at a depth of 0 ft (0 m). Both the front and rear metal props are securely mounted with the original hardware, and the belly and tail treble hooks remain intact. Cotton Cordell originally engineered this model, product code 21277, to create significant surface disturbance when retrieved across the water.
