Blue rubber strands form a trailing skirt on this vintage specimen, which is paired with a distinct black and gold glitter finish. Manufactured in the USA, this Snag Proof Moss Master weighs in at 1/4oz (8g) and measures 3 1/4" (8cm) in length. The body features a dark topside that transitions into a shimmering gold underbelly, punctuated by prominent red eyes and dark vertical gill patterns on the sides. A single upward-facing hook is positioned to slide through heavy vegetation, a hallmark of the weedless design identified by product code 17484. The front of the lure is equipped with a black metal bill and a wire line tie, intended for navigating dense cover where standard lures might hang up. Rated at 5/5, the lure shows remarkably well-preserved surfaces and hardware. The soft-body construction remains pliable, maintaining the integrity of the original design intended for surface or near-surface retrieval in moss-choked waters.
