Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Floater F7, 1/8oz fishing lure #8013

Dressed in a classic gold-to-silver transition with a distinctive honeycomb scale pattern on its back, this American-made plastic minnow reflects the reliable design Rebel is known for. Weighing 1/8 oz (4 g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this specimen carries the product code 8013. The large black shoulder spot and bold yellow eyes contrast against the metallic body, a visual trait often found on vintage shad-imitating models. As a floating F7 model, it is designed to reach depths between 3-6 ft (0.9-1.8 m) when utilized for casting or light trolling. The clear, integrated diving lip and original silver treble hooks are in excellent shape, earning this lure a condition rating of 5/5. Its construction is solid, intended for steady retrieve or stop-and-go technical approaches in freshwater settings.
