Nickel plating on the concave side features deep stamping that identifies this specimen as a Gadabout Gaddis lure, a name tied to the legacy of the pioneering "Flying Fisherman" of early outdoor television. The convex face is finished in a classic red and white wave pattern, a high-contrast scheme designed for visibility during casting or trolling. Weighing 1/3oz (9g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm), the teardrop-shaped body is a staple size for a variety of freshwater species. This USA-made spoon, carrying product code 22698, is built with a sturdy metal split ring and a single treble hook. In terms of condition, the lure is rated 4/5, showing light paint loss on the edges that reveals the bright metal base beneath while the hardware remains robust and functional.
