Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Vibrax Minnow Spin 1, 1/8oz Silver spinning lure #8063

Stamped clearly on the back of the blade is the "Made in Finland" mark, signifying the European craftsmanship behind this Blue Fox Vibrax Minnow Spin 1. Weighing 1/8 oz (4 g) and measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm), this specimen is identified by product code 8063. The silver finish on the blade is paired with a minnow-shaped body featuring a dark, scaled back and a vibrant orange-red accent near the throat. Its hardware is remarkably clean, showing a solid 5/5 condition with no signs of use on the treble hook or the brass-colored internal gear mechanism. This bell-and-gear design is the hallmark of the Vibrax line, engineered to produce a distinct low-frequency thumping vibration as the blade rotates. The weighted minnow profile provides extra stability during casting and allows for a deeper presentation in the water column than a standard spinner.
