Museum Archive: Blue Fox Vibrax Minnow Spin 2, 1/4oz Gold spinning lure #6716

Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7g), this specimen features a classic balsa wood minnow body paired with a rotating blade, a design that blends the profile of a small baitfish with the low-frequency vibration of a spinner. The gold finish on the blade complements the metallic sides of the minnow body, which transitions to a dark olive back. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this lure was manufactured in Finland by the Blue Fox Tackle Co. and carries the product code 6716. The lure is unused, still sealed in its original 1994 packaging, which has preserved the gold plating and the factory-sharp treble hook. This specific model was engineered for a controlled sink rate, allowing for precise depth management in both rivers and lakes. The balsa body provides the necessary buoyancy to balance the weight of the spinner components, maintaining the lure's posture during the retrieve.
