Vintage Cotton Cordell Gay Blade, 2/5oz fishing spoon #21586

Two distinct line-tie options on the upper ridge of this metal blade provide versatility for varying retrieval speeds and water resistance. Cotton Cordell designed the Gay Blade with a characteristic flat plane on the forehead to generate the specific movement that draws strikes from bass and walleye. This 2" (5 cm) specimen features a silver finish accented with a prominent black spot on the side and a honeycomb scale pattern along the back. It carries a weight of 2/5 oz (12 g), making it a dense, fast-sinking option for targeting deeper structure. The finish shows well with some surface wear from age, resulting in a condition rating of 5/5. Collectors will recognize this as product code 21586, a classic example of American-made tackle from the USA.
