Museum Archive: Vintage Chippewa Bait Chippewa 4, 1oz Nickel / Red spinning lure #2909

Tipping the scales at 1oz (28g), this hefty spinnerbait showcases the classic American craftsmanship of Chippewa Bait. Measuring a full 6" (15cm) in length, the lure features a dense, vibrant red bucktail body that provides a substantial profile. On the hardware side, you'll find dual nickel-plated teardrop blades. One of these blades is clearly stamped with the "CHIPPEWA 4" identification, confirming its origin from the USA. This particular specimen, identified by Product Code 2909, displays a Nickel / Red color scheme. The metal components show some signs of age and character, while the hand-tied red hair remains thick and well-secured to the head. Given its current state, it carries a solid 4/5 condition rating, making it a wonderful piece for those who appreciate the evolution of heavy-duty musky or pike tackle. The dual-blade construction is joined to the main body via a sturdy wire frame, characteristic of the durable designs intended for large freshwater predators.
