A weight of just 1/16 oz (2 g) characterizes this delicate fly rod lure, originally manufactured by South Bend in the 1940s. The Trix-Oreno 594, identified by product code 24177, measures 1 3/4 in (4.5 cm) and showcases a silver and red color scheme. This particular specimen is unused, retaining its original integrity along with the vintage paper backing from South Bend, Indiana. Historically, these were designed to provide fly anglers a way to reach fish in deeper pools during hot summer months or early season feeding. The metal body is engineered to flutter like a living insect when allowed to sink without extra manipulation. Subtle rod movements during retrieval cause it to dip and dive, simulating the behavior of a swimming minnow. The original card notes that it is unusually light, reducing strain on the rod compared to standard spinners.
