Museum Archive: Vintage Berkley Frenzy Rattl'R, 1/2oz Fire Tiger fishing lure #18234

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this Berkley Frenzy Rattl'R is a classic example of American lure craftsmanship from the USA. The bait features the iconic Fire Tiger pattern, blending a deep green top with bright yellow sides and an orange belly, accented by dark, vein-like vertical stripes and a solid black eye. This particular specimen, listed under product code 18234, measures 3" (7.5 cm) and remains in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally well-preserved. A notable visual feature is the finish's high reactivity to UV light, which provides a distinct glow-in-the-dark effect for visibility in darker water. The construction includes a top-mounted line tie and two original treble hooks. Its lipless, flat-sided design is built for casting and sinking to the desired depth before retrieval.
