Polished nickel plating across the 4 1/4" (11 cm) body provides a high-contrast flash suitable for deep-water presentations. Produced in the USA by Lake Products, the Charger #4 (Product Code: 12778) is recognized by its series of eight small perforations drilled along the center line, a design choice intended to affect water flow during the retrieve. This heavy-gauge metal spoon weighs 3/4 oz (21 g), making it a substantial tool for anglers targeting larger game fish while trolling or casting. The side profile shows a distinct S-shaped bend in the metal, terminating in a strong treble hook secured by a split ring. This specimen is in excellent condition, showing a bright reflective surface across its entire length, warranting a 5/5 rating. A smaller split ring is attached to the nose, ready for a direct line tie or snap swivel.
