Vintage Rapala Original Floater F9 (Finland), 1/8oz S (Silver) fishing lure #23282

A slender 3 1/2" (9 cm) profile makes this Rapala Original Floater F9 a quintessential example of the brand's Finnish balsa wood legacy. Designed for both casting and trolling, the lightweight 1/8 oz (4 g) body is weighted to reach depths between 3ft (0.9 m) and 5ft (1.5 m). This specimen features the classic Silver (S) finish, characterized by a dark back transitioning into foil-textured scales and a clean white belly with a red throat accent. Identified by product code 23282, the lure is fitted with two original treble hooks and a clear diving lip stamped with the Rapala name. The balsa wood remains buoyant and the finish is exceptionally well-maintained, earning a condition rating of 5/5.
