Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Flash Deep Runner, 1/8oz Brown Trout spinning lure #7889

Stamped with the "Finland" mark of origin on the reverse of its silver blade, this inline spinner represents a classic era of European lure manufacturing. This 2" (5cm) specimen, listed under product code 7889, features a specialized fish-head body weighted at 1/8oz (4g). The Brown Trout color pattern is meticulously applied to the lead body and the face of the oval blade, consisting of a warm gold base accented by bright orange spots and a dark, defined eye. A sharp treble hook is attached to the wire-through frame, which is finished with tight wire wraps and small metallic spacing beads. The condition is rated 5/5, showing well-preserved paint on the minnow-profile body and a clean, reflective surface on the metal components.
