Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Floating Magnum 18, 1 1/2oz Fire tiger fishing lure #20955

Vibrant Fire tiger patterning makes this 1 1/2 oz (44 g) lure stand out in any tackle box. Product code 20955 represents the Rapala Floating Magnum 18, a substantial 7" (18 cm) minnow crafted from dense African Abachi wood to ensure it can withstand the strikes of powerful freshwater and saltwater predators. The finish features a bright green back that fades into yellow sides and a deep orange belly, accented by iconic black tiger stripes for high-contrast visibility. Equipped with a tapered metal lip, it is designed to operate as a shallow-running bait, reaching depths of approximately 9-11ft (2.7-3.3 m). Rugged, rust-resistant hardware and Perma Steel treble hooks provide the necessary strength for targeting species like striped bass, northern pike, and musky. Manufactured in Estonia, this specific specimen is in 4/5 condition, retaining a clean look on its stimulator pattern and bright, corrosion-resistant components.
