Museum Archive: Vintage Yo-Zuri/Duel Yo-ZURI 3DB, 1/3oz fishing lure #6967

Measuring 3" (7.5 cm) in length, this Japanese-crafted topwater bait features a distinctive cupped red mouth designed for surface 0ft (0 m) presentation. Weighing 1/3 oz (10 g), the Yo-Zuri 3DB Popper, identified by product code 6967, showcases the brand’s internal 3D prism finish that reflects light through its translucent body. A dark charcoal back contrasts with the clear sides, while vibrant yellow accents highlight the large, realistic eyes. This specimen, manufactured in Japan, remains in excellent 5/5 condition, retaining its sharp black nickel treble hooks. Notably, the rear hook includes a subtle red and green dressing, a detail often favored when targeting perch, pike, or asp. Internal ribbing visible through the clear plastic body adds a layer of structural complexity characteristic of the Duel/Yo-Zuri series.
