Museum Archive: Vintage Yo-Zuri/Duel Yo-Zuri 3DB Shad Suspending, 1/3oz Prism Ayu fishing lure #19086

Prism Ayu scales provide a subtle, light-refracting flash to this 2 3/4" (70mm) shad profile, a technical hallmark of the Yo-Zuri/Duel 3DB series. This Japanese-made lure, carrying product code 19086, weighs 1/3oz (10g) and is weighted for neutral buoyancy to suspend in the water column. Designed for both casting and trolling, it reaches a steady working depth of 5ft (1.5m). The lure is in unused condition, featuring original black nickel treble hooks and a clear, pristine diving lip. Close inspection reveals an internal prism structure and ribbing visible through the translucent body, intended to mirror the natural translucency of baitfish. Large 3D eyes are set into the head, providing a distinct focal point for following fish during a steady or stop-and-go retrieve.
