Featuring a Gold / Orange UV Glow finish, this specimen comes in a weight of 2/5oz (11g) and measures 3 1/4" (8cm) in length. Produced by Yakima Bait under product code 8030, the Original Rooster Tail remains a standard choice for anglers targeting trout and other species. This specimen is unused, preserving its factory-fresh appearance. The design incorporates a signature willow leaf blade and a feathered hackle tail, a configuration originally developed by Howard Worden in Wisconsin to generate vibration. This specific iteration utilizes fluorescent materials for visibility in UV light, enhancing the presentation in deeper or stained environments. The lure serves as a classic example of American tackle design, intended for casting in both streams and lakes where a stealthy splashdown is advantageous.
