Museum Archive: Bass Pro Shops Salty Tender Tubes soft bait 8pcs, Green Pumpkin fishing #9624

Featuring a classic Green Pumpkin hue heavily peppered with black and red-orange flake, these soft baits represent a cornerstone of American bass fishing history. This specimen, measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm), belongs to the Bass Pro Shops Tournament Series under product code 9624. Produced in the USA, the Salty Tender Tubes utilize a salt-impregnated plastic construction intended for a variety of rigging techniques, from internal jig heads to Texas rigs. The hollow-bodied design leads into a multi-strand tail, a signature feature of the tube lure category meant for bottom-dragging or vertical presentations. These lures are in unused condition, preserved in their original teal-topped packaging. The Green Pumpkin coloration provides a naturalistic profile designed to match common forage found in freshwater environments.
