Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Flash-King Wobbler, 3/16oz Copper fishing spoon #16810

Stamped clearly into the copper surface, the weight of 3/16oz (5g) and the model name distinguish this vintage USA-made spoon. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm), this Acme Flash-King Wobbler carries the product code 16810 and represents a now-discontinued chapter in the manufacturer's history. The specimen is in 5/5 condition, featuring a bright metallic finish and a sharp bronze-tone treble hook attached at the flared tail section. Designed with a generous surface area relative to its light weight, the construction is known to maintain a wild wobbling action across various trolling speeds. It was engineered to perform effectively with mono, wire, or lead core lines, making it a versatile choice for reaching pike in shallow cover or lake trout in deep thermoclines. A clean mounting hole at the tapered nose ensures easy rigging.
