Measuring 2" (5cm) in length, this Yakima Bait classic remains a fundamental tool for drift fishing. The buoyant foam body is finished in a clean white hue, matched by the two plastic wings that are mounted on a central wire shaft. A vibrant red bead is positioned behind the body, serving as both a bearing for rotation and a visual trigger point. This specimen, assigned product code 16712, weighs a mere 1/64oz (0.6g), a design choice that prioritizes high buoyancy to keep the terminal tackle suspended off the riverbed. The gold-tone treble hook is secured with a traditional wire wrap and thread, showcasing the quality of Yakima's USA-made construction. Rated at a 4/5, the lure displays a well-preserved body and bright hardware, showing only light surface marks from careful handling. It represents the enduring Worden’s design used extensively by anglers targeting steelhead and salmon.
