Scaling on the upper body transitions from a dark grey spine to a fine, silver mesh pattern, mimicking the natural shimmer of forage fish. This Jr. Thunderstick, identified by product code 8989, features the classic 'Jr. THUNDERSTICK' stamp clearly visible along its side. Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7g), the floating minnow is a staple for ultralight casting when targeting perch, trout, or pike. The visual appeal is enhanced by bright yellow eyes and a warm orange-to-red gill plate area marked with distinct crimson dots. Rated in 5/5 condition, the specimen includes two original-style treble hooks and an integrated diving lip that allows the lure to reach depths from 1 ft to 5 ft (0.3 - 1.5 m). This USA-made Storm classic shows no signs of wear on its white belly or silver-scaled finish.
