Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Down Deep Husky Jerk DHJ10, 2/5oz SB fishing lure #23720

Deep-diving capabilities define this specimen, as the DHJ10 model is engineered to reach depths of 7 - 19 ft (2.1 - 5.8 m). Sporting the SB (Silver Blue) color pattern, the lure features a realistic trout-like finish with distinct blue and pink spots along its 4" (10 cm) plastic body. Weighing in at 2/5 oz (11 g), it carries the Product Code 23720 and was manufactured at Rapala's facility in Ireland. The internal rattle chamber provides an audible element for both casting and trolling applications, which is particularly effective when targeting zander, salmon, or pike. Its condition is rated a 5/5, showing the original finish in exceptional shape with clear, vibrant detailing. The long, transparent diving lip is firmly integrated into the nose, specifically designed for deep-water presentations. As a neutral buoyancy suspender, it maintains its position in the water column when the retrieve is paused. Two sharp treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings, suitable for heavy freshwater species like catfish or large trout.
