Nickel and blue finishes define this classic teardrop-shaped spoon, a now-discontinued rarity from the Acme lineup. Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the Dazzler #2 carries the distinct Product Code 5297 and represents a bygone era of USA manufacturing. The stamped "DAZZLER 2" lettering on the spoon's polished nickel underside is crisp, reflecting its unused status. For those heading to the water, it is known for being effective when targeting inactive pike in shallows of 3.3 ft (1 m) or less where there is no current. Whether intended for casting or trolling, this specimen is clean and well-preserved, featuring a secure split ring and a sharp treble hook that hasn't lost its edge. The vibrant blue top half provides a sharp contrast against the bright metal, a color combination designed for visibility in various water clarities.
