Museum Archive: Vintage Glen Evans Gad- About , 2/5oz black fishing spoon #21410

Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12g), this American-made classic showcases a distinct black body accented by vibrant yellow dots. The 2" (5cm) body is paired with a hammered metal spinner blade at the front, attached by a sturdy swivel assembly. At the rear, a dense cluster of black feathers conceals the hook, a hallmark of Glen Evans' Idaho-based craftsmanship where fly-tying techniques met traditional lure making. This specific Gad-About, identified by product code 21410, remains in 5/5 condition, featuring a well-preserved finish and full, intact feathering. The hammered texture on the silver-toned blade is crisp, reflecting the quality control Glen Evans was known for during the mid-20th century. A small metal eyelet connects the feathered tail section to the main weighted body, ensuring the components stay securely aligned.
