Museum Archive: Acme Dazzler #2, 1/4oz Hammered Nickel fishing spoon #7547

Hammered nickel textures on this Acme spoon provide a multifaceted flash designed to catch light from various angles, even in stained water. This Dazzler #2, carrying product code 7547, is a discontinued USA-made specimen that remains in unused condition (6), exhibiting the original factory shine. Measuring 2" (5 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the lure features a distinctive teardrop profile that transitions into a narrower neck, stamped clearly with "DAZZLER 2" on the smooth reverse side. While many modern spoons rely on paint, this vintage piece uses the physical dimpling of the metal to create its visual profile. It was historically utilized for casting or trolling in shallow environments, specifically for targeting inactive pike in still waters at depths reaching 3.3 ft (1 m). The hardware consists of a robust split ring and a sharp treble hook, all maintaining their integrity from the production era.
