Museum Archive: Vintage Cotton Cordell TH Spot, 1/2oz fishing lure #8351

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this sinking lipless crankbait provides the necessary heft for long-distance casting and reaching variable depths. This 3" (7.5 cm) Cotton Cordell TH Spot, identified by product code 8351, features a striking fluorescent scale pattern transitioning from a bright lime green to a warm orange belly. One of its most distinctive traits is the UV-reactive finish that glows intensely under specific lighting, an advantage for anglers targeting salmon, trout, or walleye in deeper, darker waters. The jointed body design includes an internal noise-making rattle and is equipped with two dark-finished treble hooks. A prominent black eye-spot is situated near the tail section to serve as a target for trailing predators. This USA-made specimen is in excellent condition, earning a 5/5 rating with a clean finish and sharp hardware. It is built for a variety of techniques including trolling and casting in both freshwater and coastal environments.
