Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Super Vibrax 4 1916, 3/8oz Silver / Pink spinning lure #1916

Stamped clearly into the silver-plated blade is the iconic Blue Fox logo and the size 4 designation. These classic spinners, originating from Finland, are built for structural durability when used in heavy currents. The bell-shaped body is finished in a vibrant, solid neon pink, contrasting sharply with the polished silver blade. Weighing in at 3/8 oz (10.5 g) and measuring 2 3/4 inches (7 cm) in total length, this specimen is sized for targeting salmon, steelhead, or aggressive pike. The patented two-part body consists of a machined brass outer bell and an internal zinc gear, a design choice engineered specifically to reduce line twist during long casting sessions. This specific lure maintains a high-quality finish, rated at 5/5 for its clean surfaces and intact components. It features a sharp, black-finished treble hook and a strong wire through-construction, identifying it as Product Code 1916.
