Silver finish on the body of this Storm Short Wart catches the light with a classic metallic sheen, representing the quality of American manufacturing from the pre-Rapala era. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (8 g), this floating specimen features the signature oversized yellow eyes with deep black pupils that collectors immediately recognize. An internal rattle is housed within the compact frame, a technical detail intended for added acoustic presence during a retrieve. The hardware shows some subtle darkening on the treble hooks, contributing to a soft, honest 4/5 condition rating that reflects its vintage status. Identified by product code 17830, the lure maintains its structural integrity with a sturdy metal diving lip integrated directly into the head for shallow-water applications.
