Museum Archive: Eppinger Wingbat, 1/2oz white blue fishing spoon #18834

A 1/2oz (14g) weight provides the necessary heft for this Eppinger Wingbat to reach depth during casting or trolling. Measuring 2 1/4" (6cm) in length, the lure features a distinctive white and blue color scheme, highlighted by a shimmering blue scale pattern on the main spoon body. The construction is characterized by the namesake "wings"—two auxiliary silver metal blades mounted on the spoon's face. This specific piece, carrying product code 18834, is a genuine product of the USA and remains unused, still secured in its original green card and plastic blister packaging. The treble hook is factory-sharp and the paint remains clean, reflecting the carefully preserved state of this specimen. Eppinger's Wingbat series is noted for this unusual blade configuration, adding mechanical complexity to a classic spoon profile.
