Museum Archive: Blue Fox Super Vibrax 5, 1/2oz Gold spinning lure #0663

Stamping on the oversized gold blade clearly identifies this size 5 spinner as a genuine piece of Finland-made tackle history. Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this specimen features the iconic bell-shaped body designed to minimize line twist during casting and retrieving. The blade spans a total length of 3 1/4" (8 cm) and carries the classic Blue Fox fox-head logo deeply engraved into the metal. Bearing the product code 0663, this specific lure remains unused in its original vintage packaging. While the lure itself is in pristine condition (rated 6), the surrounding blister pack shows its age with a visible crack near the hook area. Anglers in the Pacific Northwest have long trusted these larger Vibrax models for swinging through heavy currents to target salmon and steelhead. The internal gear mechanism inside the bell is built for high-vibration output without sacrificing the lure's ability to sink quickly into the strike zone.
