Glistening silver scales cover the flanks of this 4 3/4" (12cm) jerkbait, transitioning into a vibrant blue along the spine and a bright orange underbelly. Known by the product code 11035, this Smithwick Suspending Rattlin’ Rogue 12 is a classic example of American lure craftsmanship, manufactured in the USA. The head is accented by a distinct yellow eye set within a black teardrop-shaped marking, which is a signature visual trait for this model. A small, intentional red dot is positioned just above the bottom-most point near the tail hook, adding a subtle highlight to the metallic finish. As a suspending model, this 2/5oz (12g) lure is designed to remain stationary in the water column when the retrieve is paused. The internal rattling chamber provides a specific auditory profile during use. Depending on the technique, the clear plastic lip allows for a diving depth of 1 ft (0.3 m) to 6.5 ft (2 m) when casting, while trolling can take the lure down to 10 ft (3 m) or 13 ft (4 m). This specimen is in 5/5 condition, featuring clean paint and three sharp treble hooks attached by original split rings.
