Hammered nickel finishes like the one on this 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon were designed to maximize light reflection from various angles underwater. Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length, this Acme Little Cleo (product code 7865) represents a classic USA-made design that has been a staple in tackle boxes for generations. Looking at the front surface, the deep dimples create a distinct texture while the reverse side remains a polished, smooth silver. A sturdy split ring and sharp treble hook come standard on this specimen, which is weighted for light-tackle casting or slow trolling in freshwater environments. The hardware and finish are in beautiful shape, earning a condition rating of 5/5 for its clean surfaces and intact plating. A small attachment hole at the head is cleanly punched, allowing for easy connection to a snap or leader.
