Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Flash Deep Runner, 3/16oz Rainbow Silver spinning lure #8318

Weighing in at a nimble 3/16oz (5g), this Finnish-made spinner showcases the quality craftsmanship expected from the brand's heritage in Finland. The Rainbow Silver finish on the Blue Fox Flash Deep Runner features a distinct grid-like scale pattern across both the teardrop-shaped blade and the weighted minnow head, which helps differentiate it from standard smooth-finished lures. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm), this specimen carries product code 8318 and presents in 4/5 condition, retaining a clean luster on its hardware. The design utilizes a dressed treble hook with natural feathers, providing a soft profile behind the lead body. Collectors will appreciate the alignment of the blade and the weighted torso, a technical setup designed for reaching specific depths during a retrieve. The silver plating remains bright, especially through the textured scale details that define this specific color variation.
