Vintage Storm Hot'N'Tot Thin Fin, 1/4oz silver fishing lure #24142

Weighing 1/4oz (6.5g), this silver Storm Hot'N'Tot Thin Fin stands as a testament to the pre-Rapala era of American lure manufacturing. The 2" (5cm) body is matched with a distinctive metal diving lip stamped with the Storm Lures brand, which is essential for its specialized floating buoyancy. This specimen, assigned product code 24142, is designed for reaching depths between 5ft and 13ft (1.5–4 m), a range that makes it a staple for anglers targeting perch, zander, or pike. The silver finish remains bright, accented by the characteristic yellow eyes that have long been a hallmark of this series. Regarding its physical state, the lure is in very clean shape with well-preserved hardware, reflecting a condition rating of 4/5. Its construction is tailored for versatility, performing reliably across trolling, casting, and drift fishing techniques. The belly and tail trebles are correctly scaled for the body size, maintaining the balance required for deep-water presentations.
