Gold-toned honeycomb scale patterns contrast beautifully against the deep forest green stripe running down the back of this 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) Buck Perry Spoonplug. Weighing 1/3 oz (10 g), the metal body is finished in a vibrant Frog colorway, featuring a cream-colored belly with a sharp red splash near the front. The iconic yellow eyes with black pupils remain crisp, and the original hardware, including three treble hooks, shows very little signs of age. Identified as product code 23116, this US-made rarity maintains an impressive 5/5 condition. Known for their role in the birth of modern structure fishing, these lures were built with a unique shape to maintain specific depths during a retrieve or troll. The paint across the top transitions from a light green to a dark emerald center, preserving the vintage aesthetic many collectors look for in early Spoonplug variants.
