Museum Archive: Vintage Rebel Wee-Crawfish, 3/32oz Crawfish fishing lure #23632

A classic Crawfish finish defines this 1" (2.5 cm) crankbait, featuring a detailed carapace pattern that remains a staple in many vintage tackle boxes. Weighing 3/32oz (2.5g), the Rebel Wee-Crawfish is designed as a floating lure suitable for both casting and trolling applications. This specific model, identified by product code 23632, showcases the anatomical realism that the American manufacturer Rebel became famous for, featuring a curved body profile and molded-in eye details. The hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks mounted to the belly and tail, which appear pristine on this specimen. Given its 5/5 condition rating, the lure exhibits a well-preserved finish and a transparent diving lip free of any clouding or scratches. Traditionally used for targeting predatory species like perch, pike, and zander, its small stature makes it a versatile finesse option for light tackle setups. The origin of this lure is the USA, evident in the precise application of the dark mottling over the olive-gold base.
