Museum Archive: Vintage Bagley Shad-A-LAC, 1/2oz Silver #FBS fishing lure #7288

At exactly 1/2 oz (14 g), this sinking vibration lure is weighted for reaching deeper sections of the water column where predators like zander or salmon hide. This Bagley Shad-A-LAC, identified by product code 7288, features a striking Silver #FBS finish that mimics a panicked forage fish with its reflective chrome-like body and dark scale pattern across the back. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm), the lure’s profile is accented by distinct red gill slashes and a prominent gold eye, providing clear strike targets during a retrieve. As a sinking rattle bait, it offers versatility for both casting and trolling across variable depths. The hardware remains in excellent condition, rated at 5/5, showcasing the durability Bagley is known for in their vintage American-made lineups. The lipless design is specifically intended for a wide range of species including pike, perch, and trout.
