Museum Archive: Vintage Berkley PowerBait Power Rattle, 1/2oz nickel/blue fishing lure #21153

Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) in total length, this Berkley PowerBait Power Rattle utilizes a unique hybrid construction that pairs a heavy, nickel-plated head with scent-infused soft plastic tails. This specimen, carrying Product Code 21153, is in 5/5 condition, retaining a brilliant mirror-like finish on the metal components and supple plastic bodies. Included with the lure are two distinct tail options: one currently attached with a dark base and red-orange glitter, and a spare tail in black with blue flakes. Weighing 1/2oz (14g), the lure is a sinking model designed for a variable depth range depending on your casting or trolling speed. The head is finished with bright yellow eyes and a subtle red paint accent under the chin to simulate gills, while the name 'Berkley' is clearly embossed into the soft plastic tail. This USA-made rattling bait is built with a single belly treble hook and a top-mounted line tie for targeting species such as zander, pike, and perch.
