Stamping on the silver willow leaf blade confirms this as a Worden’s Rooster Tail, a design that has anchored tackle boxes since Howard Worden first introduced it. Weighing in at 1/8 oz (3.6 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), this particular specimen features a textured silver body with a scaled pattern and a thick black hackle feather tail. It carries the product code 18124 and remains in unused condition, still housed in its original Yakima Bait Company packaging from Granger, WA 98932. The card itself is a piece of history, showcasing the classic rainbow trout graphic and a nostalgic mail-in offer for a cap and catalog on the reverse. Designed for a gentle splashdown, the inline construction was perfected to entice fish in smaller, high-pressure streams without startling them. The silver-on-silver color profile provides a consistent flash during a steady retrieve.
