Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Do-Jigger #5, 1/2oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #11444

Nickel plating provides a high-visibility flash on this 1/2oz (14g) specimen, which features a distinct blue accent stripe along one edge. Carrying product code 11444, this Bay de Noc Do-Jigger #5 is presented in 5/5 condition with clear surfaces and sharp hardware. Measuring 3" (7.5cm) in length, the spoon's specific geometry is engineered for a lazy fluttering motion that has made it a staple for anglers targeting big trout, northern pike, and bass. A notable characteristic is the small red flicker blade located at the rear split ring, positioned just above the treble hook to provide a subtle color contrast. To achieve the intended movement, the manufacturer recommends tying directly to the front split ring or utilizing a round snap swivel. While smaller versions of this design are often utilized for depths up to 20ft (6.1m), this heavier #5 model is suitable for deeper water applications or when heavier 8 lb. or 10 lb. test line is required for larger fish. The combination of the polished nickel body and the blue accent provides a versatile presentation across various water clarities.
