Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Super Vibrax 6, 2/3oz Brass / Orange spinning lure #1618

Measuring 3 1/2" (9 cm) from eyelet to hook, this substantial spinner is a classic choice for tackling heavy river currents. The polished brass blade features a crisp stamping of the iconic fox logo along with the Blue Fox Super Vibrax 6 designation. A bright orange bell housing serves as a vivid visual focal point against the metallic finish of the blade. At 2/3 oz (18 g), the weight is ideal for achieving depth in fast-moving water where large salmon and steelhead typically reside. This particular specimen, identified by product code 1618, is in excellent condition and receives a 5/5 rating. The sturdy wire frame and sharp treble hook highlight the rugged construction expected from this legendary line of lures. In flowing water, the primary technique involves casting across the current to allow the lure to swing in a downstream arc, maintaining tension to keep the blade rotating through the strike zone.
