Stamped clearly into the nickel-plated surface of the back, the "GIBBS ONE EYE WIGGLER 4" mark identifies this 1oz (28g) piece of West Coast angling history. Measuring 4" (10cm) in length, the spoon features a brilliant Nickel / Red color scheme, centered around the iconic red bead eye that remains securely pinned within the head of the lure. This vintage model, designated with product code 9725, was produced by the Gibbs manufacturer prior to 1970 and represents the durable construction collectors expect from that era. In a condition rated as 5/5, the specimen shows a remarkably preserved finish where the nickel plating maintains its original reflective depth. The hardware setup includes a heavy-duty treble hook attached via a split ring and a barrel swivel at the nose to ensure reliable performance during high-tension trolling or heavy casting.
