Copper plating defines the distinctive, high-profile silhouette of this 3 1/4" (8 cm) specimen. Labeled under product code 5094, the Buck Perry Spoonplug represents a pivotal shift in angling history, born from the 'Spoonplugging' philosophy that treated lure presentation as a precise science. The metal body shows signs of its age through light surface scratches and localized darkening on the finish, maintaining a solid 4/5 condition rating. Its construction features a rigid, stamped metal form designed for trolling or casting, equipped with a tail-mounted treble and a pair of mid-body hooks. Originating from the USA, the 1/2 oz (14 g) weight provides the necessary ballast for the specific geometry Buck Perry engineered. The copper finish offers a warm, metallic reflection that distinguishes it from common silver-toned vintage tackle.
