Stamped with the 'Bug-Spoon' name on its convex side, this Tony Accetta classic reflects light brilliantly thanks to its polished Nickel finish. Tipping the scales at 1/2oz (14g), this compact metal lure measures 1 1/2" (4cm) in length, making it a solid choice for long-distance casting or reaching deeper water columns. This specific specimen, identified by product code 17317, is in unused condition, retaining the mirror-like quality of its original metalwork without any signs of age. Produced in the USA, the construction features a heavy-gauge metal body fitted with stainless split rings at both the nose and tail. The rear ring holds a sharp, silver-toned treble hook that complements the lure's bright finish. Tony Accetta lures are highly regarded among vintage tackle enthusiasts for their durable American manufacturing and simple, effective hardware configurations. The deep engraving on the back ensures the model name remains clearly visible, an important detail for any collector documenting their find.
