Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Floater Jointed, 1/4oz fishing lure #8206

A vibrant red splash under the chin identifies this Rebel Floater Jointed, an American-made classic that measures 3 1/2" (9 cm). Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), its construction features a two-piece jointed plastic body paired with a clear diving lip designed to reach depths between 4 and 6 ft (1.2-1.8 m). The color scheme transitions from a deep teal-blue on the spine to silvery-white sides etched with a fine scale pattern. This specific specimen, assigned product code 8206, remains in top form with a 5/5 rating, showing the bright yellow eyes and dark pupils clearly. Anglers typically utilize this model for casting or trolling techniques, employing a uniform retrieve or a stop-and-go cadence. The hardware consists of two treble hooks secured by split rings.
