Museum Archive: Vintage Berkley Frenzy Rattl'R, 1/3oz Fire Tiger fishing lure #23896

Scaling in at exactly 1/4 oz (7g), the weight of this lipless crankbait suggests it was designed for efficient casting and rapid depth adjustment. The 2 1/4" (6 cm) body is finished in the Fire Tiger color pattern, showing off a detailed scale texture with a dark dorsal stripe and a distinct lateral spot. Identified by product code 23896, this Berkley Frenzy Rattl'R is preserved in its original red-capped factory packaging. The hardware, including two bronzed treble hooks, is in 5/5 condition, maintaining its original factory luster. This USA-made model features a classic flat-headed profile, intended for casting and retrieving in both clear and stained water. The clear blister pack remains in good shape, highlighting the lure's realistic eye placement and molded gill plates.
