Vintage Rapala Rattl'n RAP RNR 07 (Finland), 3/5oz Gold fishing lure #23979

Weighing in at 3/5 oz (16 g), this sinking lipless crankbait represents the durable design standards of Rapala's Finnish era. The 2 3/4" (7 cm) body is adorned with a gold foil finish that transitions into a dark, mottled back. Identified by product code 23979, this Rattl'n RAP features a stamped nameplate on its side and original, bronzed hardware. The aesthetics are completed by bright yellow eyes and a small splash of red near the nose, which serves as a classic strike point for freshwater predators. Since it's a sinking model, it operates at a variable depth, making it suitable for both casting and trolling setups across various water levels. The two treble hooks show slight signs of age but remain sturdy, contributing to a clean 4/5 condition rating. It's a solid choice for exploring deep structures where the internal rattles can communicate through the water column.
