Museum Archive: Vintage AL&W Tackle AL&W Full Wave Design REG'D, 1oz nickel/red/white fishing spoon #22300

Diagonal red stripes over a creamy white base define one half of this 1oz (25g) spoon, while the opposite side features a wavy, hammered nickel finish. Crafted by AL&W Tackle in Canada, the AL&W Full Wave Design REG'D (product code 22300) measures 2 3/4" (7cm) and showcases the unique corrugated metal texture that gave the series its name. The interior surface remains a clean, polished nickel, clearly bearing the manufacturer's identification stamp. Rating this specimen a 4/5, the lure shows vibrant enamel and well-maintained hardware with only light signs of its age. The split ring at the rear secures a large treble hook alongside a classic red plastic attractor fin, designed to add a secondary visual element for predatory fish. This high-contrast color pattern was a frequent choice for anglers targeting northern pike and lake trout in varied light conditions.
