Hand-shaped balsa wood forms the core of this classic Finnish design, weighing in at a light 1/8oz (4g). Finished in the traditional Silver Blue (SB) pattern, the 3 1/2" (9cm) body features a deep blue back transitioning into silver foiled sides with a subtle scale texture. A signature red accent at the mouth provides a classic strike point, complemented by painted yellow eyes with distinct black pupils. This Rapala Original Floater F9, listed under product code 22437, is an unused specimen (5/5), retaining the crisp edges and clear diving lip characteristic of vintage Finnish production. The lip is angled for a working depth of 3ft - 5ft (0.9 - 1.5m), making it suitable for both casting and trolling techniques. Its construction relies on the natural buoyancy of balsa, a material choice that dates back to Lauri Rapala’s original 1930s prototypes. Equipped with two original treble hooks, the lure remains a staple for collectors who appreciate the historical significance of the Finland-stamped variants.
