Vintage Other Hand-made Handcrafted crankbait wooden fishing lure, 1/2oz fishing lure #22640

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (14 g), this artisan-crafted American crankbait features a distinct copper-toned metal diving lip secured to a wooden body. Measuring 3 1/4" (8.3 cm) in length, the lure showcases a hand-applied finish of fine gold and olive glitter over a cream-colored belly, transitioning into a dark black spine. The simple white and black painted eyes reflect the authentic "garage-made" aesthetic common in mid-century USA folk art lures. Its hardware includes two belly-rigged treble hooks and a rear hook, all showing slight signs of age that align with its 4/5 condition rating. This specific specimen, cataloged as product code 22640, represents a classic example of custom woodworking in the fishing world. The curved profile and weighted design were built for casting into deeper structures.
