Museum Archive: Vintage Harrison Industries Baby Bat, 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #17652

A polished nickel finish covers the compact form of this Harrison Industries Baby Bat. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5cm), the lure utilizes an umbrella-style shield to house its upward-pointing double hooks, a design choice intended for navigating through surface vegetation. Identified by product code 17652, the heavy-gauge metal construction brings the total weight to 1/2oz (14g), allowing for precise casting into pockets of lily pads or reeds. This particular USA-made specimen is rated at 4/5 condition, showing well-maintained metal surfaces and sharp points on the twin hooks. The nose assembly features three distinct adjustment holes for line attachment, reflecting the engineering approach used by the manufacturer.
