It is equipped with two sharp treble hooks and a clear diving lip, allowing the lure to reach depths of 5–7 ft (1.5–2.1 m). This specimen remains in exceptional shape, with a condition rating of 5/5. The distinct yellow eyes and clean hardware reflect the original quality of its Finnish manufacturing.
