Equipped with a long, oversized plastic diving lip, this lure is built to reach significant depths of 28ft (8.5m) for both casting and trolling applications. This Rapala Down Deep Rattlin Fat Rap 5, weighing 2/5oz (12g) and measuring 2" (5cm), is finished in the classic Fire Tiger (FT) color scheme featuring a bright yellow-green body with black tiger-style stripes and a bold orange belly. Identified by product code 21303, this particular specimen was manufactured in Ireland, a location synonymous with quality balsa and hard-plastic lure production during that era. The floating body design is specifically intended for targeting perch, pike, and pike-perch in deeper structure. Attached are two bronzed treble hooks, which remain sharp and free from any signs of age. This lure is in unused condition, retaining its original factory luster across the entire body and the clear diving bill.
