Museum Archive: Cotton Cordell Super Spot, 1/4oz fishing lure #9743

Adorned with a striking pattern of bold vertical stripes over a gold back, this specimen transitions into a white belly marked with distinct red spots. Identified by product code 9743, this 1/4 oz (7 g) Super Spot features a vibrant red eye that serves as a focal point against its yellow-toned head. The lure measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length and remains in its original packaging; being in condition 6, it is entirely unused and preserved exactly as it left the factory. Cotton Cordell designed this sinking, noise-making rattlin for a variety of techniques, including casting and trolling at a variable depth. This versatility makes it a staple for targeting species ranging from perch and pike to trout and salmon. The Super Spot lineage is significant in the brand's history, as Cotton Cordell helped pioneer the lipless crankbait category with designs like this one, rooted in their Hot Springs, Arkansas origins. The hardware is tucked safely inside the blister pack, ensuring the finish and components remain in pristine state.
