Museum Archive: Vintage Cabela's , 2/5oz Trout fishing spoon #8517

A weight of 2/5 oz (12 g) gives this metal spoon the density needed for long casts into deep water or across river currents. The Trout color scheme is visually striking, featuring a vibrant neon pink and blue gradient heavily accented with multi-color glitter. Along the edge of the 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) body, black evergreen tree silhouettes provide a high-contrast detail against the sparkling background. On the head of the lure, the Cabela's brand name is printed in a clean, black script. The reverse side of the spoon is finished in a brilliant polished silver, intended to create a bright flash that contrasts with the painted front. This USA-made specimen, listed under product code 8517, comes equipped with a durable split ring and a sharp treble hook. Rated 5/5, the lure is in excellent shape with a finish that remains bright and intact.
