A whole new direction,

[livetofish]

;DHello All, I was thinking of moving in a whole new direction, I doe"s not mean I am in no way giving up on the balsa wood Rapalas, But I do need some help looking for all the metel spoons Rapala makes or made, Not the minnow spoon, I bought
one spoon off a member of the board, so now I would like to start
some type of a collection, I really don"t know how many models they made or how many colors, Can someone get me started???

Hi livetofish,

well I'm a quiet colector and yes - I was thinking about starting a thread obout the metal to.
In the mid to last 90's I started fishing with the blue fox/vibrax spoons (formerly Rapala) for pike and the results were fantastic until the stuff was completely sold here.

Informations and older spoons about the early Inkoo version are (sometimes) not as difficult to get cause theyr still in production (but with not that nice colors) and sometimes on sale, but its hard to find sth. about the lovely designed Korppoo's.

I know the basic colors were mostly identical to the rapals, but (shot me!) I thrown all boxes away and pinned the trebles of about one dz. to the wallpaper to hang the whole unused stuff.

(Please correct me for te codes)
From the Korppoos I have left the "SFC" and "CW", and from the Inkoos "GFR", "FT1", "P", "RB2", "SM" and other "dotted" patterns.

Have seen a pure siver slim version of the Korppoo a view weeks ago, but he was unboxed.

I haven't forget it.
Here are some Korppoo's, Inkoo's and Jurmo's from Finland. I like these colors.

Great looking spoons!

I may be looking to creating an 'Other Lures' section - if I do, I think this thread would be a good start...
