Museum Archive: Smithwick Suspending Rattlin’ Rogue, 2/5oz Transparent / White fishing lure #9808

Transparent white scales paired with a sharp red gill slash and a prominent black lateral spot define the look of this Smithwick Suspending Rattlin’ Rogue. Measuring 4 1/2 inches (11.4 cm) and weighing 3/8 oz (10.6 g), this American-made jerkbait carries product code 9808. This specific specimen is unused, preserving its original factory finish and sharp bronze-finished treble hooks. Engineered as a "Pro Rogue," the lure is balanced to remain neutral in the water column, reaching depths of 0-6 feet (0 - 1.8 m) on the cast and up to 10-13 feet (3.0 - 4.0 m) when trolled. The internal rattle system adds a technical auditory element to its presentation. The clear bill is integrated into the body design, ensuring it maintains its intended depth profile during a steady retrieve or pause.
