Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber model 6A, 2/5oz baby bass fishing lure #18156

Measuring exactly 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the profile of this Bomber model 6A represents a classic era of American lure manufacturing. Its baby bass color scheme features a prominent dark lateral line and intricate scale patterns along the sides, paired with a creamy white belly. This floating lure, carrying product code 18156, is engineered for a diving depth of 6-8 ft (1.8 - 2.4 m), making it a versatile choice for both casting and trolling sessions targeting pike or walleye. At a weight of 2/5 oz (11 g), the lure's construction includes the signature Model A oversized bill and large, painted eyes with gold iris details. Every piece of hardware, from the treble hooks to the line tie, remains in top form, reflecting a condition rating of 5/5. The clear plastic lip is molded directly into the body, a hallmark of the durability that established Bomber's reputation in the USA.
