Museum Archive: Berkley Power Worm soft bait 8pcs, Red fishing #7097

Measuring exactly 6" (15 cm) in length, these soft plastics represent a pivotal era in scent-infused lure technology. This specific pack, weighing in at 0.61 oz (17.3 g), comes in a deep Red colorway that presents as a translucent, dark brownish-red saturated with fine red glitter flakes. This 8-piece set, identified by product code 7097, remains unused in its original vintage yellow and blue packaging. The design features a heavily ribbed body that tapers into a slender tail, a construction optimized for jigging and bottom-contact presentations. Manufactured in the USA, the packaging includes the iconic Berkley performance chart on the reverse, emphasizing the scientific approach to their PowerBait formula. The soft texture and intricate ribbing are characteristic of the quality Berkley maintained during this production period.
