Museum Archive: Vintage Aeroplane Spinner Aero UV, 1/4oz White / Orange / Gold fishing spoon #11537

A striking wave of fluorescent orange spans the face of this American-made spoon, providing high visibility in stained water conditions. The Aeroplane Spinner Aero UV, cataloged as product code 11537, measures 1 1/2" (4cm) and weighs 1/4oz (7g). Its color pattern consists of a clean white base with a bold orange stripe, allowing the original gold plating to show through near the bottom edge. Under UV light, the orange pigment reacts intensely, a specific technical feature intended for deep-water presentation or overcast days where light penetration is minimal. The lure is equipped with a standard treble hook attached via a split ring at the rear. Observing the specimen, the paint maintains a sharp, clear border and the metal components are exceptionally clean, reflecting a 5/5 condition rating. Aeroplane Spinner utilized these heavy-duty finishes to ensure longevity through seasons of casting and jigging.
