Black head paint contrasts sharply against the cream-colored body of this 1/2oz (14g) vintage bait. The oversized, stamped metal lip identifies it as a specialized deep-diving model, engineered to reach deeper strike zones while maintaining its floating buoyancy when paused. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm), the body features a distinctive vertical rib pattern in golden-yellow over an off-white base. Collectors will appreciate the clear "HEDDON GO-DEEPER RIVER RUNT" stamp on the belly, which aligns with product code 22531. A vibrant yellow eye provides a focal point against the dark head paint. The hardware consists of two original treble hooks, showing the durability expected from this USA-made classic. This specimen is rated 4/5, showing a clean finish that has aged gracefully over the decades.
