The gold size 4 version is a 1/8 ounce inline spinner, twice the weight of the silver size, for larger water and bigger presentations. Its convex and concave blade is designed to throw vibration and flash as it turns, with a gold finish that gives it a different look.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
