Nickel plating on the willow leaf-shaped blade catches the light on this 3 1/4" (8 cm) specimen, marking it as a piece of angling history from Yakima Bait. Weighing 2/5 oz (12 g), this Worden’s Original Rooster Tail carries the heritage of Howard Worden’s 1950s Wisconsin designs, specifically engineered for the unique demands of trout streams. The nickel/black color palette provides a grounded aesthetic, paired with a dark, hand-tied feather tail that masks the treble hook. Listed under Product Code 21593, the lure is in 5/5 condition, showing clean surfaces and crisp factory stamping. This design is a staple for those pursuing trout, chub, or perch, utilizing a blade that rotates widely to create specific sound vibrations in the water column. Natural hackle fibers at the rear provide a lifelike profile that has remained a favorite for decades.
