Glittering hues of gold and green characterize the Spring Crawdad finish on this 3/5 oz (16 g) deep diver. Known by product code 9401, this 2 3/4" (7 cm) Norman DD14 is a quintessential American-made rattling lure designed to penetrate the 12-14 ft (3.6 m - 4.2 m) depth range. The Spring Crawdad pattern is visually complex, utilizing dark vertical bars over an iridescent base with a subtle orange-red belly to mimic a molting crayfish. Its large clear bill is specifically angled for a steep descent, whether being worked via casting or trolling. The condition of this specimen is a clean 5/5, with the glitter-rich paint and original hardware showing excellent preservation. The internal noise-making chamber remains functional, and the split rings and trebles are as sharp and bright as the day they left the factory.
