Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Whisper 3, 2/5oz silver spinning lure #21803

Stamped with the 'Whisper' model name and a size 3 designation, this spinner showcases the classic French manufacturing heritage associated with early Blue Fox production. The silver-plated blade features a distinctive diamond-textured pattern designed to scatter light as it rotates through the water column. A weighted, bell-shaped metal body weighing 2/5 oz (12 g) provides the mass needed for accurate casting, while the total length of the lure spans 3 1/4" (8 cm). On the reverse of the blade, the 'Made in France' origin and the stylized fox logo remain sharp and legible near the clevis. This specimen, identified by product code 21803, is rigged with a strong bronze-finished treble hook. The metallic surfaces and hardware are exceptionally clean, reflecting a condition rating of 5/5. This design represents a staple in the transition of European lure craftsmanship into the mainstream angling market.
