Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Vibrax Shallow, 1/4oz Rainbow Yellow / Green spinning lure #12555

A vibrant green feathered treble hook anchors the tail end of this Finnish-made spinner, cataloged under product code 12555. Weighing 1/4 oz (8 g) with a total length of 2 1/4" (6 cm), the Blue Fox Vibrax Shallow is finished in a bold Rainbow Yellow / Green pattern. The yellow blade features a graphic series of small black triangles on the face, while the reverse side reveals a polished silver surface clearly stamped with the manufacturer’s name and Size 2 designation. Its weighted body is sculpted like a minnow head, decorated with dark spots over a yellow base to mimic natural prey. This specimen shows no signs of wear, presenting a clean 5/5 rating. Designed for the upper water column, this lure is a staple for those swinging for salmon or trout in faster currents where a shallow presentation is required. The specialized wide blade is a technical hallmark of the Vibrax line, intended to provide significant surface area for water resistance.
