Vintage Rapala Original Floater F9 (Finland), 1/8oz G (Gold) fishing lure #22082

Gold (G) scales against a dark back and white belly distinguish this 1/8oz (4g) balsa minnow. Sized at 3 1/2" (9cm), the Rapala Original Floater F9 (product code 22082) reflects the Finnish manufacturing legacy that began in the 1930s. Designed for both casting and trolling, it operates effectively at a depth of 3ft to 5ft (0.9 m – 1.5 m). This specimen remains in 4/5 condition, showing well-preserved hardware and a clear diving lip. The textured gold sides provide a distinct visual profile, characteristic of these early Finnish-made models. Two sharp treble hooks are mounted to the underside, ready for use or display within a collection.
