Museum Archive: Vintage Gitzit Incorporated Gitzit Baby Blue Eyes Cat Fish, 1/4oz Green / Blue Eyes fishing spoon #12863

A translucent green body peppered with dark flecks characterizes this vintage Gitzit Baby Blue Eyes Cat Fish. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) and weighing a balanced 1/4 oz (8 g), this USA-made soft bait carries the product code 12863. Gitzit Incorporated opted for a distinct look on this specimen, featuring bright blue spherical eyes that contrast sharply against the dark, wide head. The construction integrates a sturdy top-mounted hook, designed to stay clear of bottom debris while casting. Small, molded fins line the sides of the torso, leading into a thin, curved tail that provides a lifelike silhouette. This particular lure is in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally well-preserved with vibrant colors and supple material. The dark speckling extends from the head through the tail, mimicking the natural mottling found on juvenile catfish.
