Museum Archive: Vintage Strike King Charles Spence's Grass Frog, 2/5oz fishing lure #14945

Measuring 4" (10 cm) in length, this Strike King Charles Spence's Grass Frog is a classic example of early soft-body surface designs from the USA. Weighing 2/5 oz (11 g), the lure features a cream-colored body accented by green and black eyes at the nose. Identified by product code 14945, it utilizes a single, upward-pointing hook integrated into the soft body to facilitate fishing through heavy vegetation for pike and perch. The twin curly tails are designed to trail behind the main body during a retrieve. This specimen remains in excellent condition, earning a 5/5 rating, with its soft material and hardware well-preserved. The line tie is positioned at the very tip of the nose, characteristic of surface poppers meant for topwater casting techniques.
