Stamped into the silhouette of a realistic baitfish, the Phoebe is a cornerstone of American lure design. Measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm) and weighing in at 1/8 oz (4 g), this specimen features the Trout pattern—a blend of soft pink and purple tones over a silver-grey base, accented by distinct black spots along the lateral line. Manufactured by Acme in the USA, the lure's metal body is textured with a scale pattern that catches light across its curved surface. The hardware consists of a single split ring at the tail holding a bronze treble hook. As an unused piece with a condition rating of 6, it maintains its original factory appearance. This specific lure, carrying product code 11457, represents the hydrodynamics that allow for effective use across various depths depending on retrieval speed. Its thin-profile metal construction is designed for both casting and trolling applications.
