Weighing in at 1/3oz (10g), this particular piece of angling history represents the core philosophy of Buck Perry’s “Spoonplugging” system. The finish features a bold red head adorned with black and white eyes, transitioning into a gold body section framed by a textured silver glitter coating. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) in length, the lure’s rigid metal construction is designed for precise depth control, a fundamental principle of the inventor's specialized technique. This specimen, identified by product code 6263, maintains its structural integrity with the original belly and tail treble hooks still firmly attached. The red paint on the leading edge shows high clarity, and the silver glitter remains densely applied along the curved wings of the metal body. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the lure shows the level of care expected from a serious collector's archive. Buck Perry’s creation was more than just a lure; it was the centerpiece of a structured scientific approach to finding and catching fish across various structures and depths.
