Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Bumble Bug, 3/32oz June Bug fishing lure #8035

Metallic green hues define the June Bug color scheme on this 3/32 oz (3 g) ultralight lure. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.7 cm) in length, the Rebel Bumble Bug (product code 8035) captures the look of a large insect with its translucent wings and textured compound eyes. This specimen comes from a storied American lineage of lures produced in the USA, designed specifically for targeted casting and twitching techniques. It is engineered to operate at a shallow depth range of 0 to 2 ft (0 - 0.6 m), making it a staple for anglers pursuing trout, perch, or chub. The belly reveals a darker, mottled pattern contrasted against the bright metallic back, a characteristic detail of the June Bug finish. Equipped with two treble hooks and a clear, wide diving lip, the hardware remains bright and functional. Its physical state holds a 5/5 rating for its clean finish and well-preserved hardware.
