Crafted from premium balsa wood in Ireland, this specimen weighs in at 1/4 oz (8 g) and measures 2 3/4" (7 cm). The Rapala Shad Rap, product code 8123, is finished in a naturalistic olive-brown pattern with distinct scale details along its sides and a clean, light-colored belly. As a Deep Runner (size 07), the clear diving lip allows it to operate within a depth range of 5 ft (1.5 m) to 11 ft (3.3 m). The hardware consists of two original silver-tone treble hooks, which remain sharp and properly aligned. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the lure shows a crisp factory finish without visible wear. Its balsa construction is a hallmark of the Irish-made era, providing specific buoyancy useful for targeting species like zander, perch, and pike. Casting or trolling with this deep-diving model remains a standard technique for anglers seeking a specific depth profile.
