Museum Archive: Yakima Bait Worden’s Original Rooster Tail, 1/16oz Gold / Orange spinning lure #4331

Weighting exactly 1/16 oz (1.77 g), this ultra-light spinner is a quintessential tool for targeting trout in skinny water. The gold willow leaf blade is stamped with the OGT Tuxedo pattern, showcasing bright orange dots that complement the solid orange body. Tied to the rear is the signature Rooster Tail hackle in a reddish-orange shade, a feature Howard Worden popularized to provide a life-like profile in the water. This specimen, carrying product code 206 GFL, measures 2" (5 cm) in length and was manufactured in Mexico. It remains unused in its original retail packaging, which preserves the vibrant factory finishes and earns it a condition rating of 6. The treble hook is fully integrated into the feathers, ensuring the lure maintains its intended balance during casting and retrieval.
