Weighing in at 3/16oz (4.7g), this specimen represents a classic design originating from Howard Worden’s mid-century Wisconsin workshop. The 2 3/4" (7cm) long lure features a distinctive orange body accented with black dots and a textured gold willow leaf blade. This specific Rooster Tail, bearing product code 16101, remains in its original packaging and is unused. The blade is designed for broad rotation, while the pulsating hackle feather tail—rendered here in a vibrant yellow and white mix—is a signature element that has helped anglers target trout on pressured streams since the 1950s. Although assembled in Mexico using U.S. parts, it maintains the traditional build quality expected from the Yakima Bait brand.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
