Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala Mini Fat Rap Sinking Deep Runner 30 Uv, 1/8oz FT (Fire Tiger) fishing lure #8034

Sporting a vibrant Fire Tiger (FT) pattern with bold black vertical stripes over a fluorescent green and yellow gradient, this compact sinking lure represents the precision of Finnish manufacturing. Weighing exactly 1/8 oz (4g) with a length of 1 1/4" (3cm), the Mini Fat Rap (Product Code 8034) is engineered as a deep runner to reach depths ranging from 3 ft (0.9 m) to 6 ft (1.8 m). The specimen is finished with a specialized UV-reactive coating that glows intensely under specific light spectrums, providing high visibility for deeper casting applications. Its hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks attached via sturdy split rings, with the entire piece maintaining an excellent 5/5 condition. The clear, downward-angled lip is firmly integrated into the body, a hallmark of Rapala’s durable balsa-style construction. The classic yellow eye with its deep black pupil remains sharp and centered, matching the clean finish found throughout this specimen.
