Museum Archive: Vintage Whopper Stopper Bayou Boogie, 1/3oz yellow back silver plate fishing lure #23314

Measuring 2 inches (5 cm) in length, this sinking lipless crankbait features a distinct yellow back silver plate finish with a textured scale pattern. A vibrant red face provides a sharp contrast against the metallic body, highlighting the yellow and black painted eyes. This vintage specimen, identified by product code 23314, represents a rare American-made Whopper Stopper design. Weighing 1/3 oz (10 g), the compact body is rigged with two treble hooks secured by classic hardware. The finish and metal components show some honest signs of age and light surface marks, resulting in a 3/5 condition rating. The line tie is positioned atop the head, which is a key technical feature for managing its sinking depth.
