Golden foil wrapping creates a high-contrast flash on this 5" (13cm) Rapala Husky Floating 13, a classic balsa wood lure meticulously crafted in Finland. Carrying product code 12999, the specimen weighs 1/3oz (9g) and is preserved in 5/5 condition. The aesthetic highlights include a black scale-pattern back over golden sides, complemented by silver eyes and a faint orange tint beneath the chin. Three sharp treble hooks are mounted for security, supporting a design intended to reach depths between 3.3ft (1.0 m) and 6.9ft (2.1 m). Suitable for both casting and trolling, the lure is designed for targeting zander, pike, and large trout. The transparent lip is clearly stamped with its Finnish origin, confirming the heritage of this floating model.
