Museum Archive: Vintage Bass Pro Shops Bass Pro XPS Suspension Lure, 1/2oz fishing lure #14313

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this slender suspending minnow from the Bass Pro Shops Extreme Performance Series (XPS) features a classic metallic silver finish with a dark grey back and subtle red accents near the mouth. Measuring 4 3/4" (12 cm), the 14313 model is designed to reach depths between 4 ft (1.2 m) and 8 ft (2.4 m). This US-made specimen is built for both casting and trolling, utilizing three treble hooks and a distinct black spot near the tail to mimic natural baitfish patterns. For those targeting pike, walleye, or trout, this lure responds well to steady retrieve or stop-and-go techniques. The specimen is in 5/5 condition, presenting an excellent opportunity for collectors of discontinued XPS gear to own an unused piece of brand history. The clear diving lip and robust split rings remain in superb shape, ready for either the water or the display case.
