Vintage Rapala Shad Rap Deep Runner 09, 3/5oz shad fishing lure #24181

16g (3/5oz) of balsa wood makes this Shad Rap Deep Runner 09 a classic choice for targeting zander, pike, and trout. Crafted in Estonia, the lure wears the traditional Shad pattern, featuring a dark gradient back that transitions into silver-toned sides with a hint of gold. A distinct red gill slash and a yellow eye with a dark pupil serve as focal points for predatory fish. The elongated clear diving lip is engineered to take the floating body down to depths of 8–15ft (2.4–4.5 m), whether you are casting into deep pools or trolling along drop-offs. Measuring 3 1/2" (9cm) in length, this specimen remains in 4/5 condition, showing well-preserved hardware and paint. Labeled under product code 24181, its construction reflects the reliable balsa craftsmanship that Rapala transitioned to Estonian facilities, maintaining the balance required for effective deep-water presentation.
