Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), this Eppinger creation showcases the brand's classic approach to hybrid lure design. This specimen, identified by product code 9275, measures 3 1/4" (8 cm) and is rated at 5/5 for its excellent condition. The vibrant yellow body features a crosshatch scale pattern and a red accent at the throat, leading into a large yellow diving lip. Its most striking feature is the replaceable brownish-yellow soft tail, which houses an additional single hook to complement the belly treble. Designed for casting or trolling, the Sparkle Tail is a sinking model capable of reaching variable depths depending on retrieve speed. It was originally engineered for targeting aggressive predators such as northern pike, walleye, and salmon. The eyes are a simple but effective red-and-black painted design, adding a focal point to the head section.
