Museum Archive: Vintage Lucky Craft Slim Shad D-7, 1/3oz Ghost Minnow fishing lure #19261

Weighing in at 1/3 oz (8.5 g), the internal tungsten center of gravity shift system is what truly sets this Lucky Craft Slim Shad D-7 apart for reaching long casting distances. The Ghost Minnow finish provides a subtle, translucent profile that performs best in clear water conditions where fish might be spooked by flashier lures. This particular specimen, identified by product code 19261, maintains a 5/5 condition with its 2 1/4" (6 cm) body looking as fresh as the day it left the factory. A prominent clear diving bill is engineered to take the bait down to depths between 6ft (1.8 m) and 7ft (2.1 m). Printed clearly along the side is the "Slim Shad D-7" stamp, showcasing the precision typical of Japanese lure design and the legacy of the FLAT CB series. The floating body is equipped with two dark-finished treble hooks joined by sturdy split rings.
