Museum Archive: Vintage L&S Bait Mirro lure L&S Mirrolure 7M18 Floating Twitchbait, 2/5oz 9 fishing lure #22957

Weighing exactly 2/5 oz (11 g), this vintage American-made floater showcases the classic craftsmanship of the L&S Bait Company. The body, measuring approximately 3 1/2 inches (89 mm), is finished in color pattern 9, which presents a muted olive back transitioning into textured silver-gold scaled sides and a clean white belly. This specific specimen, identified by product code 22957, carries the distinct red eyes and the red accent mark just behind the gill plate. Designed for casting and twitching techniques, the lure is equipped with three sturdy treble hooks and high-quality hardware typical of its era. The condition is rated 4/5, showing very light evidence of time that confirms its authentic vintage status without detracting from its appearance. A clear "7M18" stamp is visible on the underside, identifying this model within the legendary Mirrolure lineup.
