Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Shad Rap Deep Runner 09, 3/5oz fishing lure #15009

Balsa wood construction defines the build of this 3/5oz (16g) Finnish classic, making it a highly responsive choice for mid-to-deep water presentation. Identified by product code 15009, the Shad Rap Deep Runner 09 features a chartreuse-to-pearl gradient finish that hides a powerful luminescent glow, as seen when the lights go down. This 3 1/2" (9cm) specimen remains in 5/5 condition, showing no wear on its original hardware or paint. The oversized diving lip is engineered to take the lure down to depths between 8 and 15 ft (2.4 - 4.5 m) during casting or trolling. A red accent under the chin provides a focused strike point near the front treble hook. You will find the signature yellow eyes typical of this era’s Finnish production, adding a traditional aesthetic to the pearlescent body.
