A weight of 1/2 oz (12.8 g) provides the necessary ballast for reaching depths of 11.5 ft (3.5 m) during a steady retrieve or troll. Measuring 3" (7.5 cm) in length, this Rebel Supernatural Baitfish Series specimen captures the early era of photo-realistic lure finishes produced in the USA. The finish transitions from a dark, vertically barred back to a vibrant orange-red belly, meticulously recreating the appearance of a sunfish or perch species. Identified by product code 17343, the body includes an internal rattle chamber and is equipped with a large, clear diving lip designed for deep-water presentations. The gill plates and eye details are part of the original transfer process, a hallmark of the Supernatural line. The hardware features two belly-mounted treble hooks attached via sturdy split rings. Rated at a condition of 4/5, the exterior graphics remain crisp and the structural components are well-maintained, highlighting the quality of Rebel's vintage plastic construction.
