Stamped clearly on the underside of the diving lip is the "RAPALA ORIGINAL" mark, a hallmark of this Finnish classic. This 2 1/4" (6cm) balsa wood minnow represents the foundation of the Rapala legacy, weighing in at a light 3/32oz (3g). Clad in the classic Gold (G) pattern, it features a textured foil-like finish on the sides contrasted by a solid black back and a clean white belly. The yellow painted eyes with black pupils give it that vintage character collectors look for in these models. Designated with product code 16021, this specimen is in excellent 5/5 condition. It is designed to work between 2ft and 6ft (0.6 - 1.8 m) deep, making it a versatile choice for both casting and light trolling. The hardware remains bright, featuring the characteristic split rings and treble hooks at the belly and tail. Handcrafted in Finland, the lightweight balsa body provides the natural buoyancy needed for its floating-diving presentation.
