Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Flash-King Wobbler, 1/4oz Blue / Nickel fishing spoon #13997

A distinctive blue and nickel scale pattern covers the upper half of this slender trolling spoon. Tipping the scales at 1/4 oz (7 g), the Acme Flash-King Wobbler is a discontinued American-made tool for the freshwater angler. The reverse side features a crisp stamp identifying the model and weight, while the 3 1/4" (8 cm) body length provides a significant profile without excessive mass. Designed for trolling with mono, wire, or down-riggers, this lure was crafted to reach pike in the shallows and lake trout in the depths. Carried under product code 13997, the specimen is in 5/5 condition with its original hardware intact. The honeycomb scale texture on the nickel-finished side adds visual complexity to its light-reflecting properties.
