Museum Archive: Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 1/8oz Fluorescent Yellow spinning lure #15744

Weighing precisely 1/8 oz (3.6 g), this specimen remains in its original Yakima Bait packaging, cataloged under Product Code 15744. The Fluorescent Yellow color scheme is visually striking, featuring a willow leaf blade with bold black tiger patterns over yellow, paired with a multi-toned pink and yellow body. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the construction centers on Howard Worden's mid-century design, which incorporates a distinctive yellow hackle feather tail. This particular lure, manufactured in Mexico, is unused and presents in pristine condition. The assembly includes a sharp treble hook shielded by the signature feathered tail that gives the model its name.
