Weighing in at a delicate 1/24 oz (1.18 g), this vintage Yakima Bait specimen features a lustrous gold willow leaf blade paired with a natural brown feathered hackle tail. Identified by product code 6796 (labeled as 204 on the original card), the lure remains in its classic red and blue Worden's Rooster Tail packaging. The in-line spinner design, developed by Howard Worden, is engineered for ultra-light spinning or fly rod casting, making it a staple for trout and panfish in smaller streams. This specimen is unused, maintaining a condition rating of 6, with the hackle and hardware preserved exactly as they left the Yakima Bait Company factory in Granger, Washington. The reverse of the card provides specific recommendations for light spinning and bobber casting, highlighting the versatility of this feathered type lure for species like bluegill and crappie. The gold-finished blade and carefully tied hackle represent the high-quality construction that defined the brand's reputation for creating effective vibrations in the water.
