Sporting a classic scale pattern across its sides, this Norman Deep Middle N features a subtle transition from a dark olive back to silvery-gold flanks. At 1/3 oz (10 g) and 2" (5 cm) in length, it is weighted to reach depths of 7 - 9 ft (2.1 - 2.7 m). The construction utilizes butyrate walls, a hallmark of Norman's manufacturing, which creates a specific internal rattle sound often described as a low-frequency thud. A vibrant red gill mark is placed just behind the clear, round diving bill, providing a sharp contrast to the yellow and black eyes. Regarding its state, the specimen shows excellent preservation with a condition rating of 5/5. The original treble hooks are sharp and well-maintained, ready for casting or trolling. This specific specimen, identified by product code 20972, showcases the detailed paint jobs that collectors and anglers have relied on for decades.
