Combining two distinct metallic finishes, this specimen features a bright nickel face backed by a warm copper reverse. Stamped clearly into the copper side is the 'WOB-L-RITE' branding, identifying this classic casting spoon from Acme. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.7cm) in length and weighing in at 1/8oz (4g), it’s a versatile size for light-tackle freshwater applications. The lure maintains a 5/5 condition rating, showing well-preserved surfaces and sharp, robust hardware including the split rings and treble hook. Bearing product code 20817, it represents the high-quality manufacturing standard associated with Acme's USA-made lures. The thick-gauge metal construction suggests a heavy-duty build designed for long casts and deep presentation when targeted at trout or panfish.
