Museum Archive: Vintage Buck Perry Spoonplug, 3/4oz Yellow / Orange / Gray Glitter fishing spoon #5220

Glittering gray accents define the profile of this 3 3/4" (9.5cm) piece of angling history. This Buck Perry Spoonplug, identified by product code 5220, features a vibrant yellow body that transitions into a bold orange face, punctuated by two oversized black eyes. Weighing 3/4oz (21g), the heavy-gauge metal construction is a direct reflection of the "Spoonplugging" system developed by Buck Perry himself to master depth control while trolling or casting. The paint and glitter application remain remarkably crisp, justifying a 5/5 condition rating for such a well-kept vintage specimen. Each curve of the USA-made metal plate is finished with care, holding two sharp treble hooks secured by classic hardware. The orange leading edge wraps slightly around the nose, contrasting against the yellow midsection and the textured gray glitter that runs along the lure’s side ridges.
