Museum Archive: Storm Arashi Silent Square 5, 2/3oz fishing lure #11707

A thin circuit board lip distinguishes this Storm Arashi Silent Square 5, designed to reach its 5ft (1.5m) diving depth quickly even at slow speeds. Tipping the scales at 2/3oz (18g), this lure features a patent-pending "Self-Tuning Line Tie"—a free-moving design engineered to keep the track true without manual adjustment. The color pattern is a clean shad imitation, showing a metallic blue back transitioning to silver scales and a pale belly, accented by a prominent black lateral spot. Measuring 2 1/4" (6cm) in length, the body houses rotated hook hangers that nest the VMC hooks closer to the frame to help prevent hang-ups. This specific specimen carries product code 11707 and is unused, presented in its original 2013-era packaging. Manufactured in Indonesia for Rapala VMC Corp, the technical design focuses on a silent presentation, omitting internal rattles for a more subtle approach in clear or pressured water.
