Museum Archive: Vintage Bass Pro Shops XTS, 2/5oz Blue fishing lure #7923

Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this lipless rattlin features a distinct blue scale pattern that transitions into a silver belly. The 2/5 oz (12.5 g) weight provides the necessary heft for reaching variable depths, whether you are casting for perch or trolling for salmon and pike. You’ll notice the signature black oval spots scattered across the upper blue section, complimented by striking red eyes. Bass Pro Shops manufactured this XTS model (Product Code 7923) in the USA as a sinking, noise-making tool for various freshwater environments. The finish shows some light surface wear from being handled, resulting in a well-preserved 4/5 condition rating. Its two treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings, and the top-mounted line tie is positioned to maintain balance during its descent.
