Vintage Rapala Jointed J-7 (Finland), 1/8oz G (Gold) fishing lure #21453

Weighing in at 1/8oz (4g), the metallic Gold (G) foil on this Rapala Jointed J-7 remains bright and reflective against its contrasting dark back. This 2 3/4" (7cm) balsa wood lure is a classic Finnish production, clearly identifiable by the "RAPALA FINLAND" embossing on the clear diving lip. Stamped on the belly are the "FLOATING" and "J-7" designations, confirming its model and buoyancy for casting or trolling setups. Designed to run at depths between 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m), it is a versatile choice for targeting perch, pike, and trout in various water conditions. The hardware, including the original treble hooks, shows minimal wear, and the body exhibits a clean finish that merits a 4/5 condition rating. It carries the product code 21453 and retains the authentic texture typical of vintage Rapala craftsmanship.
