Museum Archive: Vintage Storm Soft ThunderCore Minner , 1/4oz Fry fishing lure #6548

Measuring exactly 3 1/2" (9cm), the soft-bodied construction of this pre-Rapala era specimen sets it apart from standard hard lures of its time. This Storm Soft ThunderCore Minner, identified by product code 6548, dates back to the company's independent years in the USA. The Fry color scheme displays a refined transition from a dark charcoal back to a translucent silvery-grey side, accented by a subtle red touch at the gill line. Integrated within the soft body is a rattle chamber, making this a noisy floating option for your tackle box. Weighing 1/4oz (6.7g), the lure retains its original clear diving lip and a sharp black treble hook. In 5/5 condition, the specimen shows no signs of wear, with the large, gold-rimmed eyes remaining bright and the textured scales well-defined across the soft exterior.
