Museum Archive: Vintage Berkley squarebull , 1/2oz Tiger fishing lure #8377

A striking golden-yellow Tiger finish defines this 1/2oz (14g) crankbait, featuring a detailed honeycomb scale pattern along its spine. Berkley developed the Squarebull, here with Product Code 8377, at a length of 2 3/4" (7cm) for specialized casting applications. The technical design incorporates a clear square lip that facilitates diving depths of 3ft (0.9 m) to 7ft (2.1 m). Visual details are prominent, including a dark brown back that fades into a bright orange underbelly with a red throat accent. Internally, this rattling, floating model is built for sound production and buoyancy. The original hardware, including both treble hooks, appears in unused state, which is consistent with its 5/5 condition rating. Large, realistic eyes are embedded into molded gill plates, highlighting the craftsmanship of this USA-made lure.
