Museum Archive: Vintage The Producers Willy's Worm UV, 1/4oz Black / Green fishing lure #9129

Glowing vividly in low light, the neon green skeleton pattern on this bait provides a striking contrast against its deep black body. This specific model, known as Willy's Worm UV by The Producers, features a high-impact UV-reactive finish designed to stand out in stained water or deeper columns. Bearing product code 9129, the lure measures 2" (5 cm) and tips the scales at 1/4 oz (8 g), making it a versatile choice for light-tackle casting. Its construction includes a broad, black diving lip fitted with two translucent green panels that help define its profile underwater. The hardware consists of sturdy treble hooks and a factory-installed snap at the line tie. A hallmark of this USA-made lure is the pair of large, gold-glittered eyes that catch and reflect ambient light. This particular piece is in 5/5 condition, showing well-preserved paint and clean metal components throughout.
