Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Floater, 1/16oz Fire Tiger fishing lure #3269

Vibrant Fire Tiger patterns adorn the slim profile of this 1 1/2" (4 cm) plastic body, featuring black stripes over a chartreuse and orange gradient. Labeled under product code 3269, this Rebel Floater is a lightweight choice for light tackle enthusiasts, weighing just 1/16 oz (2 g). Its design includes a clear diving lip that allows the lure to reach depths of 3 ft (0.9 m) when used for casting or trolling. The hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks securely attached to the belly and tail. Manufactured in the USA, the finish on this specimen is exceptionally clean, confirming it is an unused item. The paint is smooth and the yellow eyes are centered correctly, reflecting the quality control Rebel is known for. This model is typically used with a steady retrieve or a stop-and-go technique.
