Stamped with the 'SUPER VIBRAX 3' mark on its chrome-finished blade, this specimen remains in its original vintage packaging from 1984. Weighing 1/4 oz (8 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), the lure features a specialized two-part body construction that incorporates a geared internal weight. This internal component is designed to rotate in the opposite direction of the spinning blade to mitigate line twist during casting and retrieval. The silver-colored blade is paired with a matching bell resonator, a feature intended to produce sonic vibrations. Identified by product code 2848, this lure is equipped with its original round-bend French treble hook crafted from tempered stainless steel. While the Blue Fox Tackle Co. was based in Cambridge, Minnesota, the packaging notes this specific spinner was manufactured in France. The lure is unused and remains sealed within its original blister pack, which displays the technical weight charts for the Vibrax series. The clear housing has preserved the high-shine finish of the metal components effectively over the decades.
