Dipped in a classic blue-over-silver scale pattern, this Cotton Cordell Wally Diver represents one of the most prolific walleye lures ever produced in the USA. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) and weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this floating specimen is cataloged under product code 10439. The lure features prominent red eyes that contrast against the gray-scaled head, a hallmark design choice from the brand to provide a clear target for predatory fish like perch, pike, and its namesake walleye. Its construction includes an internal rattle chamber for auditory attraction while navigating depths of 9–11 ft (2.7–3.3 m) on the cast or 14–18 ft (4.3–5.5 m) when trolled. The hardware consists of two dark-finished treble hooks, both of which remain in excellent condition, reflecting the overall 5/5 rating for this piece. A clear, elongated diving lip is securely integrated into the nose, equipped with a heavy-duty split ring for direct line attachment. This specific color scheme is a staple for clear-water applications where a subtle metallic flash is necessary.
