Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Fat Rap SFR5, 1/4oz fishing lure #13832

Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), this vintage Finnish lure is designed for shallow-water exploration at depths of 0.6 - 1.6 ft (0.2 - 0.5 m). The Rapala Fat Rap SFR5, product code 13832, features a 2" (5 cm) balsa body with a distinct color profile consisting of a dark, mottled brown back, silver-pearl sides, and a vibrant peach-orange belly. The craftsmanship includes painted yellow eyes with black pupils and a clear, integrated diving lip intended for both casting and trolling. Target species for this specific model include salmon, zander, and pike, as evidenced by its sturdy hardware and two sharp treble hooks. In a 5/5 condition, the reflective finish and paint remain exceptionally crisp across the rounded profile of the lure. The split ring on the front tie-eye ensures a secure connection for various fishing techniques.
