Museum Archive: Vintage Strike King Pro Model 3XD, 1/4oz fishing lure #14728

Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), this compact deep-diver showcases a detailed silver-to-white gradient body topped with a dark grey scale pattern. The Strike King Pro Model 3XD, product code 14728, utilizes a wide clear lip to reach depths of 6.5–8 ft (2.0–2.4 m). Measuring 2" (5 cm) in length, the lure is designed to float when paused, making it a reliable choice for casting or trolling near submerged cover for pike and zander. A single black shad spot is positioned mid-body, contrasting against the metallic finish. The hooks and split rings are bright and well-preserved, contributing to its 5/5 condition rating. Internal rattles provide a secondary auditory trigger within the sounding chamber.
