Museum Archive: Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 3/16oz Lime Tiger spinning lure #16797

Weighing exactly 1/6 oz (4.7 g), the Lime Tiger finish on this Yakima Bait spinner provides a high-contrast profile suited for targeting active fish in various water clarities. This specimen, designated by product code 16797, is unused and retains its original condition rating of 6 as it remains sealed in its original carded blister pack. The silver willow leaf blade features a distinct black zebra stripe pattern and is stamped with the Rooster Tail name. Hand-tied hackle feathers in neon green and yellow encircle the treble hook, creating the signature 'tail' that Howard Worden integrated into the design decades ago. Assembled in Mexico, the lure's construction includes a weighted metal body and a straight-wire shaft for stable alignment. The SKU RT.210.MLT.B6 on the reverse of the card confirms this is the 'Met Lime Tiger' color variant.
