Museum Archive: Vintage Heddon Excalibur Shallow Runner Bill Dance Swim'N Image, 2/5oz Gold / Green fishing lure #7829

Scaled textures in a vibrant green finish transition into bright gold sides on this 3" (7.5 cm) shallow-running crankbait. Produced in the USA, the Heddon Excalibur Shallow Runner Bill Dance Swim'N Image (Product Code 7829) is built with an internal rattle system for a noisy presentation. This 2/5 oz (12.5 g) specimen is intended for shallow work, reaching depths of about 1.6 ft (0.5 m) to target fish near the surface or over submerged cover. The body design mimics a shad profile, featuring orange-tinted eyes and a distinct orange belly stripe. Two sharp treble hooks are attached to the belly and tail via sturdy split rings. This particular item is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a clean finish and clear diving lip.
