Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Little Cleo UV, 1/4oz Nickel/ green -UV glows fishing spoon #17795

Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), this classic USA-made spoon features a distinctive dual-finish body that measures 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length. One half of the plate is polished nickel for maximum flash, while the other side is coated in a vivid green UV-reactive paint that glows intensely under low-light conditions. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 17795, remains in 5/5 condition, showing a pristine surface and sharp factory hardware. The design utilizes a robust treble hook attached by a heavy-duty split ring, ensuring a secure connection during a retrieve. Primarily used for casting in freshwater for species like trout or walleye, the Little Cleo’s weight-to-size ratio allows for significant distance even in breezy conditions. The stamped metal body is engineered to catch and reflect light from multiple angles while the lure moves through the water column.
