Vintage Sparkle Tail, 1/4oz yellow/brown fishing lure #22178

Tipping the scales at 1/4 oz (6.5 g), the Sparkle Tail is a versatile choice for both casting and trolling applications. This specimen, identified by product code 22178, features a 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) body finished in a yellow and brown color scheme. The back shows a fine, dark-scaled pattern that fades into a bright yellow belly, accented by a warm orange-reddish transition toward the integrated diving lip. Its signature feature is the textured silver component positioned between the body and the rear treble hook, designed to catch light during use. Designed for variable depth, this US-made lure is a functional option for species such as salmon, perch, pikeperch, trout, and pike. The hardware consists of two bronze-finished treble hooks, reflecting a condition rating of 4/5, indicating a well-preserved collector's item with minor evidence of handling. The yellow eyes with deep black pupils offer a distinct contrast to the earthy tones of the upper body.
