Museum Archive: Vintage The Producers Finnigan's Minnow Jointed UV, 1/2oz Chartreuse fishing lure #11357

Glowing under UV light is a standout feature of this particular Chartreuse finish, which reacts strongly to ultraviolet exposure as shown in the secondary imagery. Measuring 4 1/4" (11 cm) and weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), the Finnigan's Minnow Jointed UV by Producers utilizes a two-piece body construction connected by a sturdy metal hinge. The product code 11357 identifies this specific USA-made floating model, which features a clear diving lip designed to reach depths of 5 ft (1.5 m). A vibrant Chartreuse base is accented by green vertical stripes and a small red splash near the gills, while the recessed black-on-yellow eyes provide a focal point at the head. The hardware is comprised of two original treble hooks, and the overall state of the lure earns a 5/5 condition rating. The jointed design is intended for casting and trolling techniques where the segmented body segments interact during movement.
