Museum Archive: Renegade Deep Shad, 2/5oz Silver / Red Eyes fishing lure #13955

Silver scales and striking red eyes define this Renegade Deep Shad, a floating deep-diving lure designed for both casting and trolling. This specimen is unused, remaining in its original packaging from Jadico, Inc. Carrying product code 13955, the lure is outfitted with authentic Eagle Claw hooks, reflecting a commitment to quality hardware from that era. At 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length and weighing 2/5 oz (12 g), it is engineered for deep-water coverage, capable of reaching depths up to 16.4 ft (5 m). The construction features a multiple-chamber body designed for noise, which complements its holographic finish and hand-painted details. Originally marketed through retailers like Wal-Mart, these Renegade Series lures represented a specific period in American fishing history where natural holographic colors were becoming a standard for enticing deep-dwelling fish. The long, clear diving lip is a prominent feature, ensuring it reaches its designated depth effectively.
