Finished in a classic Silver (S) foil pattern, this 3/32oz (2.5g) specimen showcases the timeless balsa wood construction synonymous with the brand's heritage. The 2" (5cm) body is designed to operate within a depth range of 2ft to 6ft (0.6 - 1.8 m), making it highly effective for various casting and trolling applications. This Rapala Original Floater F5, carrying product code 17749, presents a black back over silver scale-patterned sides and a distinct red mark under the throat. Its clear diving lip is neatly stamped with the manufacturer's name, reflecting its Irish origin. The lure is fitted with two treble hooks and exhibits a 5/5 condition, maintaining a very clean and reflective surface.
