Diagonal red and white stripes create a classic high-visibility pattern on this 2" (5 cm) nickel-plated teardrop. Stamped into the reverse side is the "AQUA SPOON" name alongside "MPLS MINN," marking its origins from the Minneapolis-based Nebco company. Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), this specimen is a versatile choice for both casting and light trolling. The finish remains exceptionally clean, earning a condition rating of 5/5, with the enamel paint showing vibrant color and the metal displaying a bright, reflective quality. Attached to the rear via a copper-toned split ring is a sharp treble hook. Identified by product code 8703, the lure represents the straightforward, functional design typical of mid-century American metal tackle. The narrow, tapered head features a single pre-drilled hole for direct line tie, while the polished nickel back provides a steady metallic flash to contrast with the painted face.
