Museum Archive: Vintage Bay de Noc Swedish pimple #8, 1oz White Pearl fishing spoon #13444

Shimmering in a clean White Pearl finish, the metal body of this 1 oz (28 g) lure represents a staple in vertical jigging history. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length, this Bay de Noc Swedish Pimple #8, identified by product code 13444, features the iconic slender profile that has been a favorite for both ice and open-water anglers since the company began its production in Michigan over 50 years ago. The hardware includes a sturdy split ring holding a sharp treble hook and the characteristic red flicker blade, which serves as a high-visibility accent for fish to target in deeper or darker water. This specific specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a smooth, glossy coating and bright metallic hardware without visible signs of use. Its design traces back to traditional Scandinavian jigging techniques, emphasizing a vertical presentation to reach specific depths where predators congregate.
