1/2 oz (14 g) of weight provides the density required for controlled casting and deep-water presentation with this Rapala Jointed Deep Husky Jerk 12. Sporting a classic Perch finish, the 4 3/4" (12 cm) body features dark vertical barring over a pale green and gold flank, mimicking common forage fish. This specimen, marked with product code 4188, is a suspending model designed to remain stationary in the water column during pauses. A long, clear diving lip enables it to reach depths of 4ft – 8ft (1.2 – 2.4 m), while the internal rattle chamber adds a sonic element to its profile. The jointed construction is engineered to remain stable across different retrieval speeds, making it a reliable choice for trolling or stop-and-go techniques. Hailing from Finland, the lure maintains its original hardware, including two sharp treble hooks. The condition is rated 5/5, appearing exceptionally clean with sharp, legible text on the underbelly.
