Museum Archive: Vintage Yo-Zuri/Duel Yo-Zuri Snap Beans, 1/16oz fishing lure #23126

At just 1" (2.5 cm) in length, the Yo-Zuri Snap Beans represents a masterclass in Japanese ultralight lure design. This specific specimen, identified by product code 23126, features a high-contrast silver finish along its flanks, paired with a vibrant orange underbelly and a dark, mottled grey back. Weighing only 1/16oz (2g), its sinking construction allows it to reach specific depths where larger lures often fail to trigger a response. The internal rattle chamber creates a noisy profile, while the gold eyes with prominent black pupils add a lifelike focal point just above the clear diving lip. Its condition is rated a 5/5, showing the original hardware and factory finish in excellent state. The lure is equipped with sharp treble hooks and sturdy split rings, typical of the quality expected from Yo-Zuri/Duel manufacturing.
