Museum Archive: Strike King Rocket Shad Spinnerbait, 2/5oz Chartreuse spinning lure #11692

Weighing in at 3/8 oz (10.6 g), this spinnerbait is engineered for long-distance casting and high-speed retrieves as highlighted by its Rocket Shad moniker. The chartreuse-patterned lead head is paired with a matching silicone skirt and a gold-finish Colorado blade, which bears the classic Strike King logo stamp. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length, the lure features a compact profile designed to imitate schooling baitfish. This specific specimen, identified by product code RS-38 (RS38-1), comes in its original vintage packaging featuring the likeness of legendary caster Stan Fagerstrom. The hardware includes a Spin-Eze ball-bearing swivel, a premium component Strike King utilized to ensure smooth blade rotation at various speeds. Manufactured in Costa Rica, the lure remains in unused condition (6/5), still sealed within its original red and yellow blister card. The head features a distinct yellow-to-white gradient with a prominent dark eye, a visual cue intended to provide a focal point for predators.
