Museum Archive: Vintage Whopper Stopper Bayou Boogie, 1/4oz fishing lure #15470

A bright red flat face characterizes this vintage Bayou Boogie, immediately drawing the eye to its unique profile. The silver-scaled finish is accented by longitudinal dark stripes along the flanks and a solid black spine. This Whopper Stopper specimen, identified by product code 15470, measures 2" (5 cm) and weighs 1/4 oz (7 g). It features a prominent cream-colored eye with a bold black pupil, set against the textured silver body. As a sinking, noisy model from the USA, it was designed for subsurface presentation and acoustic presence. The lure carries original silver-toned treble hooks and remains in 5/5 condition, showing a clean surface and well-preserved paint.
