Museum Archive: Matzuo Phantom Minnow , 1/3oz Green Tiger fishing lure #9148

Weighing in at 1/3 oz (9g), this slender profile bait features a striking Green Tiger pattern that transitions from a dark spine into a vibrant, scale-textured chartreuse flank. The 3 1/2" (9cm) body is engineered as a rattling suspender, designed to hang in the strike zone when paused during a casting retrieve. It is rated for depths between 1 ft (0.3 m) and 6 ft (1.8 m), making it a versatile choice for working over submerged vegetation or structure. The hardware consists of two sharp, silver-finished treble hooks and a clear diving lip. Notable visual details include the realistic 3D eyes and the series of black chevron stripes that run along the sides. Originating from the USA, this Matzuo Phantom Minnow is identified by product code 9148. This specific specimen is in unused condition.
