Museum Archive: Vintage Backstabber Stabber, 1/2oz silver fishing lure #23362

A shimmering silver finish with a detailed diamond scale pattern covers this floating crankbait, catching the light like natural forage. Identified by product code 23362, the Backstabber Stabber features a distinctive top-mounted treble hook configuration designed to navigate heavy cover with a reduced risk of snagging on the bottom. The plastic body measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) and carries a weight of 1/2 oz (14 g), balanced for precise casting. Its clear square bill is specifically tuned for shallow-water applications, reaching diving depths of 0-4 ft (0-1.2 m). This noisy, rattling specimen is found in 5/5 condition, representing the specialized engineering for which this USA-based manufacturer is known. Visually, the lure is finished with a prominent black spot and realistic eyes framed by a golden iris.
