Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber model B 4A screw tail, 1/4oz Shad fishing lure #21883

The Shad color scheme on this 1/4 oz (7 g) crankbait features a classic muted green top fading into a pale cream belly. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, this Bomber model B 4A screw tail (product code 21883) is a specialized tool for targeting pike perch and pike. Designed to float, it reaches a working depth of 3–7 ft (0.9–2.1 m) whether you are casting or trolling. This USA-manufactured specimen shows the traditional screw-tail hook attachment and features a small orange eye paired with a red gill slash. The condition is rated 4/5, showing light surface wear that gives the lure a genuine character without compromising the integrity of its build.
