Vintage Rapala Original Floater F9, 1/8oz S (Silver) fishing lure #21941

A classic silver (S) foil finish wraps around the balsa wood body of this Irish-made specimen. Weighing in at 1/8 oz (4 g) and measuring 3 1/2" (9 cm), this Rapala Original Floater F9 (product code 21941) represents the enduring legacy of Lauri Rapala’s 1930s design. The lure features a clear, stamped lip that guides the bait to depths of 3-5 ft (0.9 - 1.5 m) when employed for casting or trolling. Its visual condition is a clean 5/5, showing the original painted yellow eye and the distinct red chin paint. The hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks mounted to the balsa core, intended for steady retrieves or stop-and-go presentations. This specific model's origin in Ireland marks a significant period in the brand's production history, noted for the quality of the foil application and assembly.
