Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber Fat A B06F - Bill Dance, 3/5oz fishing lure #18169

Silver holographic glitter trapped inside a clear plastic body gives this specimen an eye-catching internal shimmer. Carrying the iconic Bill Dance signature on its flank, this Bomber Fat A B06F represents a classic piece of American tackle history. The upper surface transitions from a soft purple to a light blue hue, detailed with fine black vertical stripes. This floating lure, identified by product code 18169, is weighted at 3/5 oz (17 g) and measures 2 1/4" (5.7 cm) in length. It is engineered for casting techniques, capable of reaching depths between 8–10 ft (2.4–3 m). The external surfaces are remarkably well-preserved, and the "BOMBER FAT A" stamp on the tail remains sharp and legible against the clear body. You will find the bronzed treble hooks and the bright red eye in excellent state, earning this collector's piece a 5/5 condition rating. The clear diving lip is firmly integrated into the nose, designed for sessions targeting perch or large chub.
