Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Flutter Cleo (Hula Girl), 1/8oz nickel/yellow/green UV fishing spoon #19566

A vibrant nickel/yellow/green UV finish distinguishes this particular specimen, transitioning smoothly from a neon highlight to a deep forest shade. Weighing 1/8 oz (4 g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm), this spoon belongs to the Seneca Flutter Cleo (Hula Girl) trolling series. On the reverse side, you will find the stamped image of the dancer, a hallmark of the Seneca Lure company. This specific detail is highly sought after by collectors, as the "Hula Girl" icon was famously removed after Acme acquired Seneca in the early 1980s. Many traditionalists believe this stamped figure was the secret to the lure's historical success. The hardware consists of a single large hook attached via a split ring, showing the craftsmanship of its USA origin. Identified by product code 19566, the lure is in 5/5 condition, retaining its original paint depth and bright nickel plating without visible wear. The side profile reveals a gentle, classic curve designed for trolling stability.
