Weighing in at 1/2oz (13g), this long-bodied jerkbait represents the classic American craftsmanship associated with the Smithwick name. The 5" (13cm) profile is finished in a high-contrast palette featuring a dark black back, textured silver scale sides, and a bright orange belly. Large, translucent red eyes are set into the head, a signature visual trait for the Suspending Rattlin’ Rogue series. This particular specimen, bearing product code 10889, is in 5/5 condition with clear surfaces and sharp hardware. The internal rattle system provides the acoustic signature these lures are known for. It is designed to suspend in the water column, reaching depths of 1ft (0.3m) to 6.5ft (2m) when used for casting, or diving between 10ft (3m) and 13ft (4m) while trolling. Three original treble hooks are secured to the underside, maintaining the balance required for its neutral buoyancy.
