Vintage Lazy Ike Natural Ike, 1/3oz fishing lure #11476

A pearlescent finish with a soft orange belly distinguishes this mid-century crankbait, reflecting the high standards Joseph Kautzky established when he founded his manufacturing company in 1897. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), the body features detailed gill plate graphics and a large, dark lateral spot to mimic the natural appearance of forage. The clear diving lip is clearly stamped with the Natural Ike script, identifying it as one of the durable plastic models produced by the brand after 1960. At a length of 2 1/4" (6 cm), the lure retains its original luster and original treble hook hardware. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 11476, remains in excellent condition with a rating of 5/5. The design represents a bridge between the early handcrafted wooden era of the Kautzky family and the high-production years before the brand joined the PRADCO family.
