Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber model 6A, 2/5oz fishing lure #17064

At exactly 2" (5 cm) in length, this compact crankbait is a classic example of Bomber craftsmanship. This specific Bomber model 6A, identified by product code 17064, features a clean pearl-white finish accented by a single black dot on the dorsal side. The oversized clear diving lip is built to reach depths of 6-8 ft (1.8 - 2.4 m) during casting or trolling, making it a versatile choice for targeting walleye or pike. Weighing 2/5 oz (11 g), the lure is equipped with an internal rattle system typical of the Model A series. The visual profile is defined by distinctive oversized red eyes with black pupils, providing a high-contrast point for predators. Its hardware consists of two silver treble hooks attached via split rings. Rated at a condition of 4/5, the specimen shows light surface wear near the lip attachment and midsection. This floating lure remains a solid piece of American fishing history from a brand synonymous with deep-diving performance.
