Museum Archive: LiveTarget Live Target Menhaden twitchbait, 2oz fishing lure #15270

Weighted at a substantial 2 oz (56g), this sinking twitchbait is built for long-distance casting into heavy surf or open water. The 4 3/4" (12cm) body replicates a mature baitfish with high fidelity, featuring a detailed scale pattern that transitions from a metallic silver belly to a golden-olive back. This specific specimen carries the product code 15270 and remains in unused condition, showcasing the intricate finish for which LiveTarget is recognized. A distinct black lateral spot sits just behind the realistic gill plate, characteristic of the Menhaden species it mimics. The hardware consists of two heavy-duty saltwater treble hooks attached via robust split rings, ensuring durability when targeting larger predators. Its lipless, streamlined profile is designed for a horizontal presentation in the water column. The eyes are deeply recessed and multi-dimensional, providing a focal point for hunting fish. No wear or marks are present on the body, confirming its status as a pristine, unused piece from the collection.
