Bright nickel plating covers the teardrop-shaped body of this Aqua Spoon, providing the high-contrast flash intended for various casting and trolling applications. Measuring 3 inches (7.5 cm) in length, the lure has a substantial weight of 3/5 oz (17 g) to aid in reaching deeper water columns. This American-made specimen from Nebco, cataloged under product code 12878, is presented in 4/5 condition, showing only light surface marks that do not detract from its overall reflective quality. The hardware is comprised of a single, sharp treble hook secured by a robust split ring at the trailing edge, while the tapered nose features a clean eyelet for direct line attachment. Its straightforward, durable construction reflects the mid-century manufacturing standards of Nebco’s USA-based production.
