Museum Archive: Vintage Bomber Shallow A, 1/3oz Foxy Shad fishing lure #16759

A 'Foxy Shad' finish defines this specimen, featuring a subtle gradient from a grey scale-patterned back down to a cream-colored side highlighted by a prominent black lateral spot. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g) and measuring 2" (5 cm), this American-made Bomber Shallow A is stamped with the clear "BOMBER SFS" mark on its side. The short, clear diving lip is designed for working the upper water column at depths of approximately 0-1 ft (0-0.3 m). The belly and tail are equipped with two sets of bronze-finished treble hooks that remain in excellent shape. With a condition rating of 5/5, the lure retains its original luster and crisp detailing, from the vibrant yellow eyes with their centered black pupils to the fine mesh-like scale texture on the dorsal area. This specific model, identified by product code 16759, showcases the classic profile synonymous with Bomber's heritage in crafting effective crankbaits.
