Purple anodized coating covers the convex face of this 1/4oz (7g) spoon, providing a high-contrast flash against its gold-plated reverse side. Cataloged as product code 7196, this Acme Fiord Spoon measures 1 3/4" (4.5cm) and represents a classic USA-made design favored for its aerodynamic stability during long-distance casting. The interior curve features a crisp "FIORD SPOON" stamp accompanied by the brand's signature lightning bolt insignia, a hallmark of Acme’s manufacturing tradition. Its construction includes a heavy-duty stainless split ring paired with a sharp treble hook, suitable for both casting and jigging techniques. This particular specimen is in 5/5 condition, exhibiting a clean finish on both the purple and gold surfaces with well-preserved hardware. The teardrop profile is specifically weighted to reach deeper water columns where passive predators often hold.
