A vibrant Gold/orange split-paint finish characterizes the 1/4oz (7g) body of this vintage trolling spoon. Measuring 3 1/4" (8cm), the Acme Flash-King Wobbler, product code 17956, is a prime example of the high-quality metalwork produced by Acme during its USA manufacturing era. This lure is in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally clean with its reflective gold plating and bright orange accents fully preserved. The design uses a thin, broad surface area intended to maintain a wobbling action at various speeds, whether fished on mono or deep-water lead core lines. It serves as a specialized tool for reaching pike in weed beds or lake trout in deeper summer waters. The tail is outfitted with a sturdy split ring and a bronze treble hook, keeping the original hardware configuration intact.
