Stamped clearly into the teardrop-shaped nickel blade, the Cabela's branding and size mark "1" signify this lure's origin from a staple name in American fishing history. Weighing in at a delicate 3/32oz (2.5g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6cm), the inline spinner features a classic construction comprising a vibrant pink faceted bead followed by a grooved nickel weight. A small white spacer bead sits adjacent to the clevis, providing a subtle visual contrast against the polished metal components. Attached to the wire frame is a single long-shank hook, a configuration often utilized for easier hook removal or when fishing specific regulated waters. This USA-manufactured specimen, identified by product code 1540, displays a soft, authentic character across its metal surfaces, maintaining a 4/5 condition rating while preserving its structural integrity.
