A bold, fluorescent red finish punctuated by distinct black dots characterizes this Buck Perry Spoonplug Series 200, an iconic piece of American angling history with product code 2978. Preserved in its original vintage blister pack, this specimen is in unused condition, showing the lure exactly as it left the Hickory, North Carolina factory. This particular model measures 3 1/4" (8.25 cm) and weighs 3/5 oz (17 g), specifically engineered for the systematic structure fishing method Buck Perry championed. The metal body is stamped with patent number 2538703, a detail visible through the clear packaging that confirms its authentic design intended for precise depth and speed control. Original treble hooks and the characteristic line tie remain factory-set, secured against the light blue backing card which identifies the maker as Buck's Baits. The packaging itself serves as a time capsule, featuring the classic logo and regional P.O. Box address from the era of its production.
