Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Rattl'n RAP RNR-5, 2/5oz fishing lure #20323

Stamped clearly on the gold belly with the "RATTLIN' RAPALA FINLAND" mark, this specimen represents the compact profile of the lipless series. At 2" (5cm) long and weighing 2/5oz (11g), the lure's finish features a vibrant gold scale pattern that transitions into a deep green back. This RNR-5, identified by product code 20323, is a sinking model designed to operate at variable depths depending on the retrieve speed or trolling pace. The condition is a meticulous 5/5, with the reflective surfaces and painted red gill lines showing no significant signs of use. Built for casting and trolling, it comes equipped with original, dark-finished treble hooks and a sturdy top-mounted line tie. The internal rattling chamber provides a distinct acoustic footprint intended for targeting species like pike, perch, and zander.
