Mirror Silver plating covers the body of this deep-diving crankbait, offering a high-reflectivity finish that catches light effectively at depth. Weighing in at 3/5oz (16g), the Norman DD 14 is a classic American-made tool designed for reaching the 12ft to 14ft (3.6 m - 4.2 m) strike zone. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 8449, measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) and remains in excellent condition, rated 5/5. The oversized clear diving lip is a hallmark of the DD series, built to pull the lure down quickly during casting or trolling. Two yellow circles with black centers represent the eyes, positioned high on the dark-graduated back of the lure. Looking at the hardware, the treble hooks are securely attached via strong split rings. The internal rattle provides an audible element that works alongside the high-flash sides of the USA-manufactured body.
