Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Swedish pimple, 3/16oz Brass / Orange fishing spoon #5609

Orange paint covers the convex side of this slender metal lure, providing a bold visual contrast against the natural brass reverse. This specific specimen of the Bay de Noc Swedish Pimple carries product code 5609 and comes in at a compact 1 1/2" (4cm) and 3/16oz (5g). The integrated red flicker blade at the tail provides a sharp focal point intended to draw the attention of fish like perch or walleye during vertical presentations. Its teardrop-inspired shape is a hallmark of the Michigan-based manufacturer, designed for efficiency in both ice fishing and deep-water casting. The condition is a well-maintained 4/5, displaying light signs of use that speak to its history while remaining functional for the tackle box. A single hole at the narrow end allows for direct tie-on or split ring attachment, keeping the profile streamlined for descent through the water column.
