Museum Archive: Vintage Matzuo FinSpin, 1/4oz spinning lure #7894

A vibrant green honeycomb scale pattern transitioning into yellow and black highlights characterizes the weighted body of this Matzuo FinSpin, identified by product code 7894. At a length of 3 1/4" (8.25 cm), the design features a polished silver-tone willow-style blade stamped with the model name, mounted on a clevis for rotation. Weighing 1/4oz (7g), the lure is built on a sturdy wire shaft with brass-toned spacers and a top attachment loop. The painted finish remains crisp with clear definition on the eye detail, earning a condition rating of 5/5. Matzuo's focus on realistic textures is evident in the depth of the scale grid, which complements the reflective metallic components and the single sharp treble hook attached via a split ring.
