Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Rattl'n RAP 06, 2/5oz fishing lure #13004

Ireland-based production marks this Rapala Rattl'n RAP 06, product code 13004, as a classic find for collectors of European-made tackle. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length and weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), the lure features a vibrant green back that transitions into a detailed silver scale pattern along the sides. A distinct black spot is visible behind the gills, complemented by yellow eyes and a touch of red at the gill plate. This sinking lipless crankbait is designed for a variable depth, making it versatile for both casting and trolling when targeting species such as perch, trout, or pike. The Irish origin stamp on the belly confirms its heritage. Rated at a 4/5 condition, the finish and hardware show very minor signs of careful handling, preserving the integrity of the original design. Two silver treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings, typical for this era of production.
