Museum Archive: Vintage Yakima Bait Worden's Flatfish F5, 1/16oz fishing lure #14359

A deep, metallic blue scale pattern covers the curved body of this Worden's Flatfish F5, catching the light in a way that mimics small forage fish. Carrying the product code 14359, this 1/16 oz (2 g) lure remains a specialized tool for light tackle enthusiasts who appreciate traditional Yakima Bait designs. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm), it features a single treble hook attached to a belly swivel, a setup intended to stay secure during a slow troll for trout or panfish. The body is clearly stamped with the "F5" model designation near the tail, providing a tactile record of its heritage. On the front, the wire eyelet is firmly seated to handle the tension of light-test fluorocarbon or monofilament leaders. This specimen is in excellent condition, rated at 5/5 for its clean, vibrant finish and intact hardware.
