Bright orange and yellow tones define the gradient finish on this classic balsa-style body. Produced in Finland, as noted on the vintage 1994 packaging, the Blue Fox Vibrax Minnow Spin 2 is a clever hybrid that merges a sinking lure body with the flash of a spinner. This specific specimen weighs 1/3 oz (9 g) and measures 3 1/2" (9 cm) in length. The spinner blade features a high-contrast black ribbed pattern over a fluorescent orange base, designed for visibility in various light conditions. Labeled under product code 5581, the lure is built around a sinking body that allows for a controlled sink rate, which is particularly useful for reaching trout or smallmouth at specific depths. The lure remains unused in its original yellow blister pack. A sturdy wire harness connects the painted blade to the weighted minnow form, ending in a sharp treble hook for secure hooksets. On the reverse of the package, the manufacturer suggests a slow retrieve to maximize the effectiveness of the weighted construction.
