Museum Archive: Vintage Head Hunter HH Minnow Suspending Jerkbait, 1/4oz Steel Teal fishing lure #19149

Weighing in at 1/4oz (7g), this mid-sized suspending jerkbait features a slender profile designed for targeting species like perch, walleye, and pike. The Steel Teal finish on this 3 1/2" (9cm) lure transitions from a dark spine into a soft blue-green teal hue, with translucent sides and a touch of gold along the front lateral sections. A small, clear diving lip allows the bait to reach depths between 3.9 - 5.9 ft (1.2 - 1.8 m), making it effective for both casting and trolling applications. This specific Head Hunter model, bearing product code 19149, is equipped with three sharp treble hooks mounted with split rings to maximize hookup ratios. An internal weight transfer system is integrated into the body to assist with accuracy and distance when casting. This specimen maintains a 4/5 condition rating, showing clean hardware and a vibrant, well-preserved finish.
