A polished Nickel finish defines this classic spoon, providing the intense flash needed for depths reaching 20 ft (6.1 m). This 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) American-made lure, identified by product code 9551, is a staple for anglers targeting kokanee, trout, and bass through casting or trolling. Weighing 1/3 oz (10 g), its construction features a stamped metal body paired with a small red attractor tab attached to the rear split ring, adding a focal point near the treble hook. For the best performance, tying directly to the front split ring is a proven technique for many veterans. When trolling, adding a swivel-trolling sinker ahead of the lure helps prevent line twist, especially when using the suggested 8 lb. to 10 lb. test line. This specific specimen maintains a 5/5 condition rating, showing the high quality expected from Bay de Noc's Michigan-based production. During winter sessions, some specialists prefer swapping the treble for a single sproat hook when tipping with bait.
