Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Floater, 1/3oz fishing lure #7743

Measuring 3 1/2" (9cm) in length, this USA-made specimen features a deep green back with a scale pattern that fades into a shimmering pink side stripe over a silver belly. Weighing in at 1/3oz (9g), the plastic body is balanced for both precision casting and effective trolling. Designed to reach depths of 3-6ft (0.9-1.8m), the Rebel Floater, product code 7743, is intended for steady retrieves or a rhythmic stop-and-go technique. The clear diving lip is characteristic of the brand's mid-century designs, paired with a distinct red eye, a black lateral spot, and detailed gill markings. Both the finish and the original treble hooks remain in excellent shape, warranting a condition rating of 5/5. The hardware exhibits the clean, original mounting typical of these vintage Rebel lures.
