Museum Archive: Rebel Floater F9, 1/4oz Fire tiger fishing lure #21615

A length of 3 1/2" (9 cm) characterizes this Rebel Floater F9, which is finished in the high-visibility Fire tiger color scheme. Identified by product code 21615 and weighing 1/4 oz (6.5 g), it is designed for a diving depth between 3-6 ft (0.9-1.8 m), making it suitable for both casting and trolling. The body features a gradient transitioning from a green back to yellow sides and a bold orange belly, accented with distinct black squiggle markings and a red eye. Two bronze-finished treble hooks are original to the specimen, which also features a clear plastic diving lip for depth control. Although the original retail box shows significant wear and yellowing, the lure itself is unused and carries a condition rating of 6. This vintage bait was manufactured in the USA, showcasing the durable plastic construction Rebel is known for among collectors.
