This was in my late father's tackle box. It looks very useful. I'd guess a 12' diver, max. 1/2 oz. and about 2 3/8". Thanks.

I just Googled it. I think you nailed it. But I'd never seen that color.

Bomber Fat Free Fingerling. The color may be custom painted as their scale pattern is a lot smaller.

1. Right

2. Nah, not in my dad's tackle box, LOL. He didn't spend money on such frivolous things as custom painted cranks. If I know him it was a Walmart exclusive el cheapo. Don't get me wrong, I loved my dad. But he had different priorities than mine.

Xcalibur Fat Free shad/fingerling, before they were all Bomber. It's one or the other for sure, the rotating trebles are a dead giveaway.

That is what I am thinking but I believe they had a E in the name Excalibur.

It looks as though I have quite the rare paint job on it. I can't find another searching the Interwebs.
