Museum Archive: Vintage Rapala RAPALA RISTO RAP, 3/5oz fishing lure #6164

Gold-scaled foil wraps the belly of this Irish-made specimen, catching the light with a warmth typical of the brand's classic metallic finishes. Weighing 3/5 oz (16 g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this Rapala Risto Rap features a deep-reaching clear plastic lip that bears the manufacturer's name. This 6164 product code lure is engineered for depths of 2.5 - 3 m (8.2 - 9.8 ft), making it a reliable choice for targeting pike and zander in deeper structure. The black scale pattern on the back transitions into a vibrant red gill accent near the head, framed by traditional white and black eyes. Hardware includes two sturdy treble hooks attached by split rings, both showing consistent color and strength. The condition is rated at 4/5, as the foil remains bright and the body shows only very light signs of its history in the tackle box.
