A weight of 1/2 oz (14 g) makes this Bomber Model 7A a substantial choice for both casting and trolling sessions. The 2 3/4" (7 cm) body features a striking color palette with a deep green back that fades into gold and orange scales, all marked by a unique green skeletal rib pattern along the flanks. Topping off the head are prominent red eyes and a clear amber-colored diving lip, which is engineered to take this floater down to depths between 6 ft and 8 ft (1.8 - 2.4 m). This specific specimen, identified by Product Code 7949, includes an internal rattle system designed to provide an audible signature during a retrieve. Historically associated with targeting pike and zander, the lure’s construction reflects the classic American craftsmanship of Bomber’s USA production era. Both treble hooks and their respective split rings show no signs of wear, maintaining a 5/5 condition rating. The front tie-point is secured with a sturdy split ring, ready for heavy line attachment.
