Museum Archive: Bomber model A B06, 2/5oz 40 fishing lure #19802

Designed for reaching depths between 6ft and 8ft (1.8 - 2.4 m), this vintage Bomber Model A B06 features the classic Color 40 pattern, characterized by its clean silver finish and distinctive black and red detailing. Anglers targeting pike or walleye will recognize the utility of this 11g (2/5 oz) floating crankbait, which measures 5.5cm (2 1/4") in length. This specific specimen carries the product code 19802 and remains in its original PRADCO-era packaging, showcasing the Bomber Bait Company’s heritage from Gainesville, Texas. The clear diving lip is paired with robust hardware, including two sharp treble hooks typical of the Model A series. Being a Condition 6 item, the lure is unused and presents as it did when first manufactured in the USA. The back of the card features the "a PRADCO brand" branding and the Sport Fish Restoration logo, marking its era in the evolution of American tackle manufacturing. The silver body provides a high-contrast flash, specifically suited for both casting and trolling techniques.
