Museum Archive: Vintage Yo-Zuri/Duel YO-ZURI Crankin Shad , 2/5oz fishing lure #9811

Weight 11 g (2/5 oz) provides the necessary ballast for this deep-diving Crankin Shad to reach its target zone effectively. Measuring 7.5 cm (3") in length, the body features a dark brown dorsal surface that transitions into a muted gold with a distinct cross-hatch scale pattern along the sides. A characteristic dark spot sits just behind the eye, a hallmark of many classic baitfish imitations from the Yo-Zuri/Duel Hardcore & Bass series. This specific model, identified by product code 9811, is engineered for versatile techniques, reaching depths of 2–3 m (6.5–10 ft) on a standard cast and extending its range down to 5 m (16.5 ft) when utilized for trolling. The oversized clear lip is securely integrated into the nose, ensuring stability during deep-water retrievals. Originating from Japan, the lure remains in 5/5 condition, retaining a clean finish across the body and the original belly and tail treble hooks.
