Museum Archive: Vintage Norman Thin N, 2/5oz fishing lure #11986

Glimmering silver-gold scales meet a muted olive-blue back on this compact crankbait, providing a highly reflective profile in the water. This Norman Thin N, identified by product code 11986, is a versatile choice for anglers targeting walleye, perch, or pike via casting and trolling. Measuring 2" (5cm) and weighing 2/5 oz (12g), the lure is engineered to reach depths of 5ft (1.5 m). The finish is detailed with fine black speckles and a prominent black side dot, accented by vivid red eyes that stand out against the pale underbelly. Its construction includes a clear diving lip and an internal rattle system for acoustic presence. This specific specimen reflects a 5/5 condition rating, showing no signs of wear on its American-made body and hardware. The sharp treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings, maintaining the original factory configuration.
