Museum Archive: Vintage Glen Evans Loco 3A Troll, 1/3oz Matte Brass fishing spoon #12700

Stamped directly into the metal on the flared tail section, the GLEN L. EVANS LOCO 3A branding identifies this piece as a genuine USA-made classic from the product code 12700 series. This Matte Brass spoon, weighing 1/3oz (10g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7cm), is a versatile tool used by anglers for both casting and trolling. The non-reflective finish provides a subtle flash in the water, a characteristic often favored when targeting fish in clear conditions. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the specimen shows clean surfaces and crisp stamping. The hardware is comprised of a dark treble hook secured by a split ring at the narrow end of the body. Designed for shallow presentations, it is effective at depths up to 3.3ft (1m), particularly in still waters where its active game can provoke strikes from inactive pike. The aerodynamic shape ensures stability during the retrieve, while the hole at the base allows for secure line attachment.
