Museum Archive: Dymara, 1/4oz Rainbow Trout fishing spoon #0838

Tipping the scales at 1/4oz (8g), this Dymara spoon features a vibrant Rainbow Trout finish that captures light against its textured surface. Crafted in Canada by Dymara Industries, this specific specimen, cataloged under product code 0838, measures a compact 1 3/4" (4.5cm). The packaging identifies this as the "Slim" model, specifically stock number SL 400 008. The lure remains in its original blister pack, maintaining a condition of 6, which indicates it is unused and preserved exactly as it left the Campbell River, B.C. facility. Designed for versatility, the back of the card notes its suitability for casting, trolling, and jigging, cautioning that the lure should not be bent. The hardware includes a sharp treble hook and a sturdy split ring, typical of the reliable construction expected from this now-discontinued manufacturer. The Rainbow Trout pattern is meticulously applied with a mix of glittery gold and silver scales accented by a subtle pink lateral line and dark speckles.
