Museum Archive: Vintage Fred Arbogast Jitterbug , 1/3oz Frog (Green) fishing lure #1564

Sporting a vibrant Frog (Green) finish, this 1/3oz (10g) specimen showcases the classic design that has defined topwater fishing for decades. The wide, heart-shaped aluminum lip is clearly stamped with the JITTERBUG name, a hallmark of Fred Arbogast's 1938 innovation. The lime green body is accented with dark, distinct spots across the back, transitioning into a clean yellow belly. Large yellow circles frame the black eyes, providing a high-contrast target. At 2 1/4" (6cm) in length, this model features two sharp treble hooks secured by standard hardware. Given its 5/5 rating, the glossy finish remains well-preserved across the entire body, from the nose to the tail. While many anglers favor a steady retrieve to engage that signature gurgling sound during night sessions, it remains a formidable tool for daytime bass and pike in open water. This specific item carries the product code 1564.
