Black finishes on these small plugs have long been a favorite for low-light conditions or targeting finicky fish in clear water. Measuring exactly 1" (2.5 cm) and weighing in at a delicate 1/16 oz (1.6 g), this specimen carries the product code 9492. It is a genuine USA-made piece of Luhr Jensen history, specifically the Hot Shot 70 model. The lure features a distinct diving bill stamped with the 'HOT SHOT' name, which helps it reach a depth of 3ft (0.9 m). The body is equipped with a belly treble hook attached via a split ring and an eyelet on the nose for the line tie. Looking at the exterior, the condition is a solid 5/5, showing the high quality of the original paint application and hardware integrity. Luhr Jensen's legacy in the Pacific Northwest is evident in the robust hardware choice for such a diminutive plug, designed for precision trolling or light-tackle casting.
