A weight of 3/16 oz (5 g) makes this Yakima Bait specimen a sturdy option for casting into varied currents. Identified by product code 8818, this Sonic Rooster Tail features the classic gold-toned blade with the recognizable dark insert displaying the brand name and the Worden's logo. The 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) body consists of stacked brass components leading to the characteristic hackle tail, here in a deep brown that provides a subtle profile against the gold flash. Originally designed by Howard Worden to provide a distinct vibration through the water, the Sonic series is a staple for trout and panfish collectors alike. This particular lure is exceptionally well-preserved, earning a 5/5 condition rating with sharp text on the blade and clean, intact hackle.
