Museum Archive: Vintage Barracuda Reflecto Spoon #5, 3/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #17869

Nickel-plated surfaces give this 3/4oz (21g) spoon its signature flash, a hallmark of the Florida-made Barracuda line. Bearing the stamped Reflecto #5 identification on the body, this specimen features a classic single-hook design secured with a heavy-duty fastener. A vibrant yellow feather trailer is tied to the hook shank with red thread, providing a distinct visual contrast against the polished metallic finish. This Barracuda Reflecto Spoon #5, identified by product code 17869, is built for durability during coastal casting or trolling. The hardware shows careful construction, and the overall condition is rated 4/5, as the nickel plating remains bright and the feather dressing is securely attached.
