Cotton Cordell Big O Square Lip 2.25in, 1/3 oz Crankbait

The Big O was Cotton Cordell’s first “million-seller,” the first square-lip crankbait ever created. This proven lure still catches plenty of big bass. The buoyant body and cover-deflecting ability is unmatched by other square lips. Three sizes are available (2-, 2½- and 3-inches) in a variety of fish-catching color patterns. The Big O started the square lip crankbait craze, and it’s still leading the charge.

The Big O is the original square-lip crankbait and sold more than one million lures during its first season of production. It is known as one of fishing's most-copied lures, but no other bait captures that shimmy and produces so many violent strikes. Equally effective in lakes and streams, the Big O truly is one of fishing's most legendary lures.
