Weighing in at 3/5 oz (17 g), this classic nickel-plated hardware from USA-based Weedless Bait is a sturdy example of mid-century utility. The FISH TRAP SPOON, designated as Product Code: 4157, measures 3 1/4" (8 cm) and features a streamlined teardrop profile specifically engineered for navigating through heavy aquatic cover. Its surface shows some light wear consistent with a 4/5 condition rating, though the metal remains bright and the single integrated hook is protected by a traditional wire weed guard. Two distinct rivets reinforce the wider tail end, securing the internal hook mount, while the narrow nose is finished with a clean line tie hole. This weedless spoon relies on its solid construction and reflective finish to perform in dense vegetation where standard lures would snag.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
