Five vibrant orange-red dots punctuate the luminescent white face of a 3/4 oz (21 g) casting spoon. Identified as Product Code 8689, this Acme Little Cleo Glow measures 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) and is built on a solid nickel base, which is visible on the highly reflective back. This USA-manufactured specimen earns a 5/5 condition rating, looking as crisp as the day it left the factory with no signs of wear on its specialized glow-in-the-dark coating. The heavy-gauge treble hook and robust split ring are correctly sized for the spoon's heft, intended for long-distance casting or deep-water trolling where the phosphorescent finish can provide maximum visibility. The iconic humped profile of the Little Cleo is a classic Acme design, providing a specific weight distribution that anglers have relied on for decades when targeting salmon, trout, and pike.
