Museum Archive: Acme Dazzler, 1/4oz Yellow / Red / Nickel fishing spoon #0845

Tipping the scales at a versatile 1/4 oz (7 g), the Acme Dazzler features a vibrant yellow base accented by bold red spots. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this specimen remains in unused condition, still housed in its original vintage carding. The nickel hardware and stamped metal body, identified by Product Code 0845, represent the classic American manufacturing standards of the Providence-based Acme Tackle Company. While it is a discontinued rarity, its technical design is intended for high-activity movement at depths up to 3.3 ft (1 m), particularly effective for targeting inactive pike in calm waters. The spoon’s balanced weight allows for diverse applications across both casting and trolling disciplines. Visual details on the packaging include the iconic blue-and-white striped branding, confirming its heritage as an authentic piece of US-made tackle history.
