Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Swedish pimple, 3/4oz Pearl White fishing spoon #1728

Pearl White pigment covers this 3/4 oz (21 g) specimen, a weight choice specifically balanced for deep-water jigging or cutting through faster currents. At 2 3/4 inches (7 cm) long, the Bay de Noc Swedish Pimple features a curved, slender profile designed for vertical presentations in both open and hard water. This particular unit, identified by product code 1728, retains its iconic red plastic flicker blade at the tail to provide a focused strike point for visual-feeding predators. The finish shows some very minor surface wear from time spent in a tackle box, meriting a solid 4/5 condition rating. Heavy-duty split rings are mounted at both ends, securing the hardware for species like walleye, lake trout, or pike. The design reflects the decades of Michigan-based craftsmanship from the Bay de Noc Lure Co., emphasizing utility and simple, effective hardware over complex mechanics.
