Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Swedish pimple 3, 3/16oz Hammered Nickel fishing spoon #11563

Weighing in at 3/16oz (6g), the Hammered Nickel finish on this Bay de Noc Swedish Pimple 3 provides a textured surface designed to catch and scatter light in deep or murky water. Measuring exactly 1 3/4" (4.5cm) in length, this specimen, identified by Product Code 11563, features the iconic slender profile that has defined the Michigan-based manufacturer's lineup for decades. A standout visual detail is the bright red fluorescent flicker blade attached near the treble hook, acting as a high-visibility target for predatory fish. The metal body and hardware are in excellent shape, meriting a 5/5 condition rating. Its construction allows for vertical presentation, making it a staple for both ice fishing and deep-water summer jigging for perch or walleye. The hammered texture is specifically intended to break up reflections to mimic the natural scale pattern of baitfish, while the classic American-made hardware remains tight and functional.
