Dressed in a detailed Perch pattern, the finish on this specimen showcases the craftsmanship intended to mimic a real baitfish. This 1/3oz (10g) lure measures 2 1/4" (6cm) and represents the evolution of the Kautzky Manufacturing Company, which originally began as a gunsmithing business in 1897. The clear plastic diving lip, stamped with the model name, is a key feature of the Natural Ike series produced after the transition from wood construction in the 1960s. Listed under product code 12465, the lure is fitted with two dark-finished treble hooks and is in excellent condition, rated 5/5. The painted details around the gill plates and large, dark eye emphasize the 'natural' branding that made these lures a staple for American anglers before the brand joined the Pradco family. Every scale-like marking and vertical bar is crisp, highlighting the quality control of its USA-made origins.
