Museum Archive: Vintage Atlantic Lures Atlantic lure Joint-fina, 1/3oz purple fishing lure #23856

Adorned with a vibrant purple sparkle finish, this specimen from Atlantic Lures showcases the classic American jointed minnow design. Weighing 1/3oz (9g) and measuring 4 3/4" (12cm), the Joint-fina is engineered for a floating buoyancy that suits a variety of water conditions. The two-part body construction is linked by a robust metal hinge, paired with a clear diving lip positioned to reach depths of 1ft - 4ft (0.3 - 1.2 m). This specific lure, carrying product code 23856, remains in excellent 5/5 condition, with the shimmering finish and hardware appearing exceptionally well-maintained. For the technical angler, this model is ideally suited for uniform retrieves or stop-and-go techniques whether casting near cover or trolling open water. The lure features two belly trebles and a nose-mounted tow point, all reflecting the quality expected from a USA-made lure.
