Museum Archive: Bay de Noc Do-Jigger 1, 3/16oz Nickel / Green / Red / Yellow fishing spoon #6799

1/6 oz (4.7 g) of American-made brass forms the base of this classic spoon, finished in a striking combination of polished nickel with a vibrant green stripe and a red accent tab. Originating from Gladstone, Michigan, the Bay de Noc Lure Co. designed the Do-Jigger 1, listed under Product Code 1DJNGN, specifically for versatility across seasons. This specimen is unused and remains in its original vintage packaging. While effective for casting or trolling for kokanee and trout in summer, the manufacturer suggests the #1 size is particularly effective for ice fishing in depths down to 20 feet (6.1 m). The construction features a sturdy front split ring where tying directly with a clinch knot is recommended to maintain the intended movement. A single treble hook is attached at the rear, though the design allows for easy swapping if bait or a single hook is preferred for winter jigging. The back of the card notes this specific color pattern includes nickel, green, red, and yellow highlights over the metal body, spanning a length of approximately 1 3/4" (4.4 cm).
