Museum Archive: Vintage Renosky Lures Swiss Swing, 1/8oz spinning lure #9171

A distinct scale pattern is embossed onto the silver-finished blade of this 1/8 oz (4 g) Renosky Lures Swiss Swing. This specific piece, identified by product code 9171, measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) in total length. The body is constructed with a series of six graduated brass beads that provide the necessary weight for casting and depth control. Looking at the hardware, the treble hook is firmly attached to the wire loop at the rear, showing the solid build quality characteristic of Renosky. The blade's reverse side is smooth and polished, designed to produce a bright flash. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, with the wire wraps at both the top eyelet and the hook attachment remaining tight and secure. The combination of the silver blade texture and the brass body beads makes it a classic example of traditional inline spinner design.
