Museum Archive: Vintage Storm Thin Fin Sinker , 1/4oz Brown Tiger fishing lure #10531

The Brown Tiger pattern on this sinking rattlin features a bold orange-red belly that transitions into a dark back, accented by distinct black vertical stripes. Produced by Storm under product code 10531, the lure weighs in at 1/4oz (7g) and measures 2 1/4" (6cm). Unlike the floating versions more commonly found, this specific specimen is a sinker, allowing for a variable diving depth depending on the retrieve speed and countdown technique used. The integrated round lip and the inclusion of internal rattles make it a functional choice for targeting species ranging from perch and pike to salmon and trout. The painted yellow eyes with their dark pupils remain vivid against the deep body coloration. Original treble hooks are attached to the belly and tail, showing the sturdy hardware typical of these USA-made classics. This piece is in good shape, earning a condition rating of 4/5.
