Museum Archive: Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail 2, 3/32oz Fluorescent Yellow spinning lure #6336

Weighing in at a delicate 3/32 oz (3g), this specific inline spinner showcases a striking Fluorescent Yellow palette combined with a multi-toned body. The construction features a classic willow leaf blade designed to rotate widely and create the vibration these lures are famous for since Howard Worden first developed them in the 1950s. This 2" (5 cm) specimen, listed under product code 6336, remains unused, maintaining its original factory finish. A dense hackle tail in a bright chartreuse-yellow masks the treble hook, providing a soft profile in the water. Looking at the UV imagery, the blade and the orange section of the body offer a strong glow, a technical detail that helps in murky water or deep pockets. The body itself is painted with a green-to-orange transition and punctuated with dark dots, mimicking small prey. It is a quintessential piece of American tackle history from Yakima Bait, built for the gentle splashdown needed on pressured trout streams.
