Museum Archive: Rebel POP-R, 1/4oz fishing lure #14987

Dressed with a white feathered tail hook tied with red thread, this 1/4 oz (7 g) surface popper remains unused in its original vintage packaging. This Rebel POP-R, designated by product code 14987, measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) and features a detailed dark scale finish over a brownish body. Its signature red concave mouth is built for surface casting, creating a specific interaction with the water's surface that has made it a staple for targeting pike and perch. Made in the USA, the lure is equipped with a yellow eye and black pupil, providing a high-contrast focal point. The original red-and-white striped card remains intact, housing the lure alongside its sharp belly treble hook.
