Museum Archive: Vintage Salmo Whitefish WF18 Custom Painted , 3/5oz black/red glitter fishing lure #24363

Heavy glitter coverage defines the visual profile of this custom-finished jointed minnow originating from Poland. Measuring 5" (13 cm) in length, the Salmo Whitefish WF18 Custom Painted (product code 24363) features a segmented body designed for floating buoyancy. Its finish transitions from a dark upper body into a bright, speckled belly, categorized as black/red glitter. This lure is weighted at 3/5 oz (17 g), providing enough mass for targeting large predators like pike, zander, and catfish. The technical design includes a clear, sturdy diving lip that guides the lure to depths between 6 ft and 8 ft (1.8 - 2.4 m). Two belly-mounted treble hooks are attached with stainless steel hardware, appearing sharp and well-maintained. Showing its original luster and structural integrity, the specimen earns a condition rating of 5/5. A painted yellow eye adds a point of contrast on the forward section of the articulated body.
