Museum Archive: Eagle Tool. inc Eagle Tool, 3/16oz brass fishing spoon #19491

Brass construction defines the body of this 3" (7.5cm) Eagle Tool lure, giving it a substantial feel for its 3/16oz (6g) weight. Identified by product code 19491, this specimen remains in unused condition, showing the original metallic finish from Eagle Tool. inc's manufacturing process in the USA. The design features a distinctive flared tail section where the hardware is mounted, a characteristic trait in trolling spoons meant to mimic small baitfish. A single, large treble hook is secured via a sturdy split ring at the rear, while the nose features a clean, drilled eyelet for direct line attachment. The subtle longitudinal curve visible in the side profile is a deliberate design choice from the maker, providing a specific hydrodynamic footprint when pulled through the water. This particular brass finish remains a staple for anglers targeting various species in diverse light conditions.
