Hey guys, my local shop has a buttload of originals in the Rainbow Trout pattern, mostly in size 5 and 7 I think. How can I tell which ones are the old color that are discontinued? I know he's got some that are relatively new but he also has some that look old that still have the little Rapala booklet inside, any ideas?

I can't thank you enough jmc, you've been really helpful. I think most of them are the newer Estonia rainbows but Im quite sure there's some older different rainbows in the back of the rack, Im gonna pick several of them up today and take some pictures, and if you see one you like I'll send it your way free of charge for helping me out.

Well I couldn't see the pic. But from my records, there are 4 vary-ations on the RT pattern. The first I call "silver belly" it was made in both Finland and Ireland. The second is "white belly" and I've only seen from Ireland. The 3rd I describe as "red face, no blue" and have only seen pictures from Jason's collection. The 4th I describe as "steelhead" and again have only seen pictures that were at least at one time posted by Jason. By the way, I'm looking for a silver belly F5 if anyone can help out - preferably Finland.....
