Museum Archive: ​Bomber Badonk-A-Donk Saltwater Grade, 1oz fishing lure #13996

Scaled silver sides transition into a bold red head on this 4 1/4" (11cm) surface lure, a color combination favored for its high-contrast visibility in varied light conditions. Labeled as a Saltwater Grade model with product code 13996, this Bomber Badonk-A-Donk weighs in at 1oz (28g), providing the necessary mass for long-distance casting even into a stiff coastal breeze. It is the High Pitch (HP) version, utilizing internal components to create specific sound frequencies designed to attract fish to the surface. The specimen is equipped with two heavy-duty saltwater treble hooks and robust split rings, all visible through the clear blister of the original packaging. This lure remains unused, preserved on its 2009-dated card which highlights its intended use for saltwater species. A prominent yellow eye with a dark pupil is positioned on the red head section to act as a focused strike point.
