Silver-plated and polished to a mirror shine, the stamped body of this spoon reflects its American heritage. Weighing 2/5oz (12g), the metal blank measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) and features the iconic Barracuda brand stamp on the convex side, depicting a fish silhouette within a textured oval. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 22887, retains an excellent 5/5 condition with no visible wear to the reflective plating. The hardware is configured for heavy-duty casting, utilizing a barrel swivel attached via a split ring at the head. On the tail, a sharp treble hook is hand-dressed with a tuft of white hair secured by a distinct red thread wrap, a signature detail for these Florida-born lures. Designed for long-distance casting in both fresh and saltwater, its solid construction ensures a stable flight. The metallic finish and the contrast of the red-and-white dressing make it a standout example of mid-century tackle design.
