Museum Archive: Vintage Berkley PowerBait Power Rattle (Replaceable fins), 1/2oz Chartreuse / Green / Red fishing lure #10454

Chartreuse and green hues dominate the hard plastic head of this 1/2 oz (14 g) sinking lipless lure, which utilizes an innovative interchangeable tail system. Produced by Berkley under product code 10454, the PowerBait Power Rattle merges a hard, rattling body with the soft texture of PowerBait fins. This specimen arrives in 5/5 condition, maintaining a bright finish and a prominent black eye. Two distinct soft tails are present: a mounted translucent green with gold flake and a spare brownish-red tail with red glitter. Hardware includes a single belly treble hook and a top-mounted line tie designed for casting or trolling at variable depths. The soft fins are molded with fine ribbing and a scale pattern along the trailing edge.
