Museum Archive: Heddon Zara Spook, 3/4oz Yellow / Red fishing lure #8337

High-visibility yellow with bold red markings defines this classic topwater specimen, a color scheme that stands out even in murky waters. This Heddon Zara Spook, identified by product code 8337, measures 4 1/4" (11 cm) and carries a weight of 3/4 oz (21 g), providing the mass needed for precision casting over distance. The lure features a distinct red head and an orange eye with a black pupil, all housed within its original green-and-white striped card packaging. Manufactured in El Salvador, this specific model showcases the evolution of the Zara line, which is widely recognized for the zigzag technique described on the reverse side of the packaging. This lure is unused, appearing exactly as it did when first produced. The bilingual instructions on the back of the package provide guidance for both English and French-speaking anglers on how to master the rhythmic twitching required to bring the plug to life.
