Museum Archive: Vintage Yakima Bait ​Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 3/32oz Silver / Red spinning lure #13710

Silver-toned willow leaf blades stamped with the Rooster Tail name and a 1/16 size mark characterize this Yakima Bait classic. Designated with product code 13710, this piece combines a high-gloss red weighted body with a dual-colored feathered tail. At a total weight of 3/32 oz (2.6 g) and a length of 2" (5 cm), it represents a design lineage that traces back to Howard Worden's 1950s Wisconsin workshops. The feathered tail is hand-tied with a blend of red and white hackles, providing a soft profile that follows the rotation of the blade. This particular specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing a pristine red painted finish and clean silver plating on the blade. The brass hardware and treble hook are free of wear, and the wire shaft remains perfectly aligned for smooth rotation of the clevis.
