Vintage Arkie Lures Arkie Bass Jig, 2/5oz black fishing #24414

Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), this specimen features the legendary flattened head design that first established the Arkie-style standard for bottom-dwelling presentations. The solid black finish extends from the lead head through the dense skirt material, maintaining a low-profile silhouette. Measuring 2" (5 cm) long, it includes the fiber brush guard that was instrumental in the development of flipping and pitching techniques in the United States. This Arkie Bass Jig, identified by product code 24414, is preserved in 5/5 condition with its hardware and skirt strands fully intact. The original Arkie Lures head shape was specifically crafted to keep the hook upright when resting on the substrate, preventing the lure from rolling during a pause. Its construction reflects the early 1970s innovations that allowed for high-precision casting into the thickest brush without snagging.
