Yellow and red paint accented by brass-toned edges gives this 3 3/4" (9.5 cm) metal lure a striking appearance. Known by collectors as the Buck Perry Spoonplug, product code 9390, it is a foundational piece of the "Spoonplugging" science developed by the brand’s namesake in the USA. The head section features a distinctive red mask with yellow eyes, a signature detail of Perry's technical designs. This specimen is in 4/5 condition, showing honest wear with paint chipping along the flared sides and head, which reveals the solid brass construction underneath. A single heavy-duty treble hook is mounted at the rear, built for the rigors of deep-water trolling. These stamped metal bodies were engineered specifically for maintaining precise depth control, serving as tools for the disciplined mapping and fishing techniques Perry famously detailed in his writings.
