Museum Archive: Vintage Other Excalibur Pop'n Image X9220, 2/5oz Threadfin Shad fishing lure #6482

The signature of legendary angler Bill Dance is scrolled across the blue-hued flank of this topwater specimen. Measuring 3 1/4" (8cm) in length, the lure utilizes a cupped mouth to displace water at the 0ft (0m) surface level. A weight of 2/5oz (12.5g) provides stability for long-distance casting into structure. Under the Threadfin Shad color scheme, a holographic finish reflects light through the silver scale-patterned sides, while a yellow throat adds a subtle contrast. On the white belly, the product code 6482 is associated with the clearly printed 'Excalibur POP'N IMAGE' branding. The rear treble hook features red and white hackle feathers intended to provoke strikes when the lure is stationary. This particular item maintains a high level of preservation with a condition rating of 5/5.
