A vivid silver and purple color scheme defines this vintage Norman Minnow Floater, an American-made classic with a 3 1/2" (9cm) profile. Weighing in at 3/16 oz (5g), it is a lightweight choice designed for both casting and trolling applications. This specific model is intended to reach depths between 3 ft and 6 ft (0.9 m to 1.8 m), making it a versatile tool for targeting fish holding near submerged cover. The finish features a detailed scale pattern that catches the light, contrasted by a bold purple back and bright yellow eyes. Regarding its condition, it rates a 4/5; notably, the front line tie has been snipped, a specific modification that speaks to its history in a previous angler's tackle box. It remains equipped with two treble hooks and its original clear plastic diving lip, ready for steady or stop-and-go presentations.
