Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Floater F9, 1/4oz clown fishing lure #21197

A vibrant red face transitioning into a yellow and silver scaled body defines the classic clown finish of this Rebel Floater F9. Tipping the scales at 1/4oz (6.5g), this 3 1/2" (9cm) plastic minnow represents the durable construction that collectors expect from vintage USA production. This specific specimen, cataloged under Product Code 21197, carries a condition rating of 4/5, showing light cosmetic wear that attests to its authenticity without compromising its structural integrity. The hardware consists of two original treble hooks and a sturdy clear diving lip meant for depths between 3ft-6ft (0.9-1.8 m). Whether used for casting or trolling, the lure is designed for steady or stop-and-go retrieval techniques. Small yellow eyes with black pupils sit prominently near the head, providing a focal point against the bright red paint.
