Vintage Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 3/32oz Brass spinning lure #10974

A brass willow leaf blade defines this Yakima Bait classic, which tips the scales at 3/32oz (2.6g). This Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, identified by Product Code 10974, measures 1 3/4" (4.5cm) and features the iconic stamped branding visible on the metal surface. The white weighted body shows some light wear from its history in the field, though it remains in 4/5 condition. Originally developed by Howard Worden in Wisconsin, this design became a staple for trout anglers who needed a lure with a gentle splashdown for fishing smaller, pressured streams. The wide-rotating blade is designed to create significant vibration in the water, a hallmark of the series since the 1950s. This specimen is rigged with a dark-finished treble hook and a standard wire-wrapped eyelet for line attachment.
