Museum Archive: Vintage Worth Chippewa Steel Spoon, 1/2oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #13637

Two deep blue diagonal stripes slash across the polished nickel face of this Worth Chippewa Steel Spoon, a design choice meant to maximize flash and contrast in varying water clarities. Produced in the USA under product code 13637, this lure tips the scales at 1/2 oz (14 g) and reaches 2 3/4" (7 cm) from tip to tail. The reverse side features a crisp "MADE IN U.S.A." stamp alongside the size number "5," identifying its specific place in the Chippewa lineup. Its stamped steel construction is finished in a Nickel / Blue combination that remains bright and highly reflective, earning it a well-deserved 4/5 condition rating. Often used for casting, the teardrop profile is paired with a vintage open-eye treble hook attached via a durable split ring at the rear.
