Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Fiord Spoon UV, 1/4oz fishing spoon #17818

A weight of 1/4oz (7g) gives this silver-bodied spoon excellent aerodynamic properties for distance casting or vertical jigging. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5cm) in length, the Acme Fiord Spoon UV, identified by product code 17818, is an American-made classic that is no longer in production. The highlight of this specimen is the bold orange stripe which provides a vivid glow under UV light to catch the eye of passive predators in deeper water. Its polished metal surface is clean and the original treble hook remains sharp and unoxidized, reflecting its unused 5/5 condition. This lure was designed for versatility, performing well in scenarios where a slim profile is necessary to trigger a strike.
