Museum Archive: Vintage Cabela's 1, 1/8oz Nickel spinning lure #1542

Hammered texture on the teardrop-shaped blade catches light from various angles, reflecting a bright nickel flash. Cataloged under product code 1542, this classic inline spinner from Cabela's measures 2 3/4 inches (7 cm) in length and is a sturdy example of functional tackle design. It carries a weight of 1/8 oz (4 g), making it a suitable choice for light-tackle trout or panfish outings. The assembly includes a vibrant red bead nestled between a brass-colored conical spacer and a silver-toned ribbed body section for visual contrast. Mounted on a long-shank single hook, this configuration is intended for anglers who prefer a simpler alternative to treble hooks. The nickel finish is very well-preserved, showing the stamped Cabela's branding clearly on the face of the blade, with an overall condition rating of 5/5.
