Scaling across the spine in a distinctive black diamond pattern defines this vintage lipless crankbait. Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21 g), this sinking lure provides a substantial profile at 4" (10 cm) for reaching various depths when targeting salmon or walleye. The cream-colored body shows the classic 'Cordell' script on one flank and the 'Ratt'l Spot Minnow' designation on the other, reflecting the craftsmanship of its USA origin. Its flat-sided design features a bright red eye that contrasts against the pale finish, which remains in a clean 4/5 condition showing subtle signs of age. This specific model, product code 16786, is designed for a variable depth technique, allowing it to be fished through the water column via casting or trolling. The lure is equipped with two original treble hooks mounted to the belly and tail.
