Museum Archive: Vintage Fred Arbogast Jitterbug , 1/4oz Frog fishing lure #7215

Adorned in a classic Frog pattern, the vibrant green body features dark spotting that contrasts against the creamy white belly on this 2" (5cm) lure. Weighing in at 1/4oz (7g), the specimen carries the signature double-lobed metal lip that Fred Arbogast designed to create a rhythmic gurgling across the surface. The hardware remains bright, featuring two treble hooks and the iconic faceplate secured by two clean screws. The yellow eyes with large black pupils provide a focused look that has made this model a favorite in tackle boxes for decades. This specific item, product code 7215, shows a condition of 5/5, with the paint retaining its original sheen and the metal components exhibiting a well-preserved finish. Small touches, like the subtle hint of red near the throat, add to the authentic look of a lure designed for productive topwater sessions.
