Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber model 7A screw tail​, 1/2oz shad fishing lure #21424

Shad-patterned scales with a dark mesh texture define the upper profile of this classic crankbait. This Bomber model 7A screw tail, identified by product code 21424, measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) and carries a weight of 1/2 oz (14 g). Designed for targeting walleye and pike, the lure is a floating model intended for casting or trolling at depths of 8-10 ft (2.4 - 3.0 m). The finish shows visible wear from time on the water, giving it a 3/5 condition rating that highlights its history as a functional tool. High-contrast red eyes and a bright orange throat accent provide visual triggers against the silver-grey body. As part of the renowned Model A series manufactured in the USA, it is equipped with two treble hooks and a clear diving lip.
