A pale bone finish defines the belly and sides of this sinking lure, which gradually darkens into a deep olive-black along the dorsal surface. This Cotton Cordell Ratt'l Spot Minnow, identified by product code 16716, weighs 3/5 oz (17 g) and spans 4 1/4" (11 cm). Because it is a sinking model, it operates at a variable depth, allowing for precise placement in the water column during casting or trolling. The yellow eyes and a small red chin accent provide localized points of color that stand out against the neutral body. Originally manufactured in the USA, the lure is equipped with two sharp treble hooks and maintains a 5/5 condition rating, appearing exceptionally well-kept. Two belly-mounted treble hooks are secured by split rings, ready for targeting species like zander, pike, or salmon.
