Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Swedish Pimple, 2oz gold/nickel fishing spoon #22268

A brilliant gold/nickel finish defines this heavy-duty jigging tool, offering two different metallic flashes to attract fish at depth. This specific Swedish Pimple, product code 22268, measures 4 1/4" (10.5cm) and serves as a prime example of the classic design Bay de Noc has been manufacturing in the USA since 1955. At 2 oz (56g), its weight is tailored for reaching deep structure or handling strong currents during vertical jigging. The tail end features a vibrant red plastic attractor fin paired with a sturdy treble hook, a hallmark detail of a design inspired by century-old Swedish lure traditions that perform well in both fresh and salt water. In terms of condition, the specimen rates a 5/5, displaying a clean, mirror-like surface on the body and well-maintained split rings. The dual-toned body reflects light differently on each side, mimicking the shifting appearance of natural forage fish.
