Finished in a striking gold and red pattern, the front of this 1 1/4" (3 cm) spoon features a bold red flash that occupies nearly half the surface area. Carrying the 20116 product code, this Acme specimen weighs just 1/16 oz (1.8 g), making it a fine choice for targeting trout or panfish on light gear. The back of the lure is finished in solid, polished gold and clearly bears the 'LITTLE CLEO' stamp, reflecting its American manufacturing roots. Its condition is a solid 5/5, with the gold-toned treble hook and split ring remaining bright and free of wear. The specific curvature of the metal body is a hallmark of the Acme design, intended to provide stability during a retrieve or while vertical jigging. Every detail of the paint and plating on this small spoon has been preserved, maintaining the high-visibility contrast that collectors look for in metal lures.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
