Museum Archive: Vintage Savage Gear 4 Play V1 swimbait, 1 3/4oz fishing lure #20956

Weighing in at a substantial 1 3/4 oz (51 g), this multi-segmented hard body offers the significant presence needed for larger freshwater predators like pike and musky. The finish on this 20956 model is a detailed custom pattern consisting of an olive-gold back that fades into a cream-colored belly, accented by fine dark speckling and a vivid red gill section. Measuring 19 cm (7 1/2") in length, the four-section plastic construction is designed for a slow sink rate, allowing for controlled presentation through the water column. Two sharp black nickel treble hooks are strategically positioned on the belly to ensure solid hook sets from various strike angles. This specimen maintains a 5/5 condition, with the paintwork and hardware appearing exceptionally clean and well-preserved. Each segment is connected by durable metal hinges that support the overall structural integrity of the V1 series design.
