Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Husky Jerk HJ 14, 2/3oz Green Tiger fishing lure #9202

Measuring exactly 5 1/2" (14 cm), the elongated profile of this Green Tiger lure is a standout example of Estonian craftsmanship from Rapala. Identified by product code 9202, the Husky Jerk HJ 14 is a dedicated suspending jerkbait designed to stay neutral in the water column during pauses, making it highly effective for stop-and-go retrieves. The 2/3 oz (18 g) body houses an internal rattle chamber, providing a distinct auditory signature while maintaining a stable presentation at various speeds. Its translucent Green Tiger finish is paired with a golden-yellow underbelly and intricate gill detailing, all preserved in 5/5 condition. Intended for reaching depths between 4 ft (1.2 m) and 8 ft (2.4 m), the lure serves as a reliable tool for both casting and trolling for pike or walleye. Three sharp treble hooks are strategically positioned along the belly and tail for secure hooksets.
