Museum Archive: Vintage Yakima Bait Spin-N-Glo, 1/4oz pink spinning lure #22743

Pink coloration dominates the body of this Yakima Bait Spin-N-Glo, a design that has remained a staple for river anglers seeking salmon and steelhead. Weighing in at 1/4oz (8g), the buoyant body is engineered to lift bait off the bottom, positioning it directly in the feeding lanes of walleye or trout. This specific specimen, bearing product code 22743, features the stiffer, light-reflective mylar wings that are designed to rotate even in minimal current. The 4" (10cm) rig includes a pair of faceted red beads situated between the body and the trailing treble hook, providing a bit of visual contrast and protecting the knot from the spinning hardware. Originating from the USA, the construction utilizes a central wire through-body design terminated with a swivel on the nose to prevent line twist. The condition of this lure is rated 4/5, showing well-maintained hardware and clean, vibrant surfaces. The silver finish on the mylar wing remains bright, ensuring maximum visibility under various water conditions.
