Stamped with the iconic leaping fox logo and the "BLUE FOX SUPER VIBRAX" name, the brass blade on this size 2 spinner displays the hallmarks of its French manufacturing heritage. Weighing in at 3/16oz (6g), the lure measures 2 1/4" (6cm) and is built around a heavy bell-shaped body designed to emit low-frequency vibrations. This specific specimen, listed under product code 17042, maintains a solid 4/5 condition rating, showing light signs of age that highlight its vintage character while the hardware remains intact. The extra-wide blade is engineered to spin even at slow retrieve speeds, creating the high flash and signature thumping that has made these spinners a staple for anglers targeting trout, salmon, and steelhead. The brass finish is a classic choice for providing visibility in both clear and stained water. A standard treble hook is attached to the wire-form shaft, ready for use or display alongside other European-made tackle.
