Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Super Vibrax 2 Foxtail, 3/16oz Silver spinning lure #17178

Silver finishes on the French-made blades provide a classic flash that reflects the heritage of the Blue Fox brand. This specific size 2 model weighs 3/16 oz (6 g) and serves as a versatile choice for light tackle setups. Stamped clearly on the weighted bell-shaped body is the Blue Fox Super Vibrax branding, a design feature engineered to minimize line twist while housing the internal gear. Designated by product code 17178, the lure measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length and includes a distinctive Foxtail dressing on the treble hook. This combination of red and tan fibers adds a subtle, pulsing visual element to the presentation. The condition is rated at 5/5, with the silver plating and hardware appearing exceptionally well-preserved. The blade itself carries the France mark, identifying its origin and the quality craftsmanship associated with these specific production runs.
