Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber Fat Free Shad UV, 1/3oz fishing lure #20894

Sporting a chartreuse scale finish designed to pop under deep-water lighting, this 1/3 oz (10 g) crankbait shows the classic lines of the Bomber Fat Free Shad series. Bomber Bait Company's legacy in deep-diving crankbaits is evident in the broad, clear diving lip that allows the lure to reach depths of 8-10 ft (2.4-3.0 m). The lure features a bright yellow-green UV scale pattern on the sides with a darker teal gradient along the spine and a signature dark spot near the gill plate. Measuring exactly 2 1/4" (6 cm), the body exhibits some light surface wear consistent with a 4/5 condition rating. Two original dark-toned treble hooks are attached via sturdy split rings, showing the honest age of the piece. Identified by product code 20894, this American-made specimen represents the evolution of the 'Fat Free' design into modern UV-spectrum finishes.
