Museum Archive: Vintage Yo-Zuri/Duel Yo-Zuri Fuze Duel Crankmax, 2/5oz fishing lure #19430

A textured, honeycomb pattern stretches across the dark back of this Japanese-made crankbait, providing a sophisticated visual contrast to its pearlescent sides. Measuring 2" (5 cm) and weighing in at 2/5 oz (11 g), the Yo-Zuri Fuze Duel Crankmax is a floating model built for reaching deeper structures. The long, clear diving bill is designed to pull the lure down to depths of 11.5ft (3.5 m), making it a reliable choice for targeting perch and pike holding in deep water. Delicate vertical ribbing along the midsection gives way to a soft orange belly, a classic color combination for visibility. This noise-making specimen, identified by product code 19430, is well-suited for both steady casting and technical twitching. The hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks attached via sturdy split rings. This particular lure appears exceptionally well-maintained, earning a condition rating of 5/5.
