Vintage Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 1/2oz gold/hot pink spinning lure #21427

A weight of 1/2 oz (14 g) makes this Worden’s Original Rooster Tail a substantial choice for reaching deeper pockets or handling heavier currents. Identified by product code 21427, the lure features a gold/hot pink color profile, though the body presents visually as a bright fluorescent orange. Measuring 3 1/2" (9 cm), this Yakima Bait spinner is in 5/5 condition, showing a clean finish on the gold-stamped willow blade and a full, vibrant red feather tail. The blade is textured with a scale pattern and bears the "ROOSTER TAIL" mark alongside the classic fish icon. This design, pioneered by Howard Worden in the 1950s, utilizes a slender body and a spinning blade to create visibility and sound in the water. The red hackle feathers are meticulously tied to the hook, providing a natural pulsating element to the lure's profile during a steady retrieve. All hardware, including the wire form and the small red accent bead, is in excellent state, reflecting the quality control Yakima Bait is known for.
