Museum Archive: Vintage Canadian Bait, 3/4oz Copper fishing spoon #2959

Copper tones dominate this circular disc lure, which carries the product code 2959 from Canadian Bait. Weighing 3/4 oz (21 g) and measuring 2" (5 cm) in diameter, this American-made specimen was produced between 1960 and 1970. The reverse side features clear stamping from the Canadian Bait Mfg Co along with a "PAT. APPLD. FOR" mark, highlighting its early development history. Its construction includes a central hole and a robust single hook attached via a split ring. This specific example remains in a clean 5/5 condition, preserving the original sheen of the metal. Designed for casting or trolling, the lure uses a top-mounted split ring as its primary attachment point to the fishing line.
