this is my favorite lure, but i have never seen one with that line across the side like that. looks like the pattern underlay was either messed up or maybe it was a seam in the underlayment. either way you dont see that sort of thing very often. nice lures and welcome to the nation.

Thanks Bacon!
Bought this one 20 years ago just because of this strange line!
i bought it during a expetional rapala promotion composed of many special colors rapalas and it was the only risto rap available..

that wouldnt have been a "catch of the day" promotion that you got those lures from?? thats how alot of these special lures turned up here (in the usa) as well. mostly ristos, but other lures too, particularly discontinued and special lures. never knew if other parts of the world got the same bunch of lures as we did here.

I bought them in "decathlon" a french generalist sport dealer...It was incredible they sold tons of rapala special colors for....3 euros!!
I was a young fisherman and for me rapalas were just expensive dream lures...When i saw that i try to buy them smelling that was a unique oppotunity!(i were right!)..They were doing that promotion one or two more years i thing it was in 2000..Now they continue that kind of promotion but with more common rapalas like tdd...Or with others lures (last year it was with old bomber lures ,heddon and rebel!
i fish a lot with them during years ,lost a lot give some...
