Museum Archive: Dick Nite Spoons Dick Nite #0, Gold / Nickel fishing spoon #2309

Measuring a mere 3/4" (2 cm) in length, this diminutive Dick Nite #0 spoon represents a classic piece of American-made tackle history. The gold and nickel finish on this specific specimen, cataloged under product code 2309, showcases the distinctive split-plating design that made these lures a staple for trout and salmon anglers in the Pacific Northwest. Produced in Lake Stevens, Washington, the lure reflects the brand's heritage as "The Old Stand-By" for river systems. This item is unused and remains sealed in its original blue blister pack, which carries the "Made in the USA" stamp. The thin-gauge metal body is equipped with a traditional wire clip, a hallmark of its construction designed for trolling and river drift fishing. On the reverse side, the packaging identifies this as the "Weir" variant with its characteristic 50/50 metal balance.
