Museum Archive: Other G.W's ice fishing Lures, 3/5oz Chartreuse / Orange fishing spoon #12104

Coming in a vibrant Chartreuse / Orange pattern, this vintage find from Bay City, Michigan, weighs in at 3/5 oz (17 g). Branded as G.W.'s Ice Fishing Lures, these pieces were specifically marketed to ice fishermen targeting perch, walleye, lake trout, and salmon. The lure measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) and utilizes a weedless design, featuring a substantial single hook integrated into its curved profile. Rated as unused, the specimen remains attached to its original black-and-white display card which bears the product code 12104. The card highlights the manufacturer's heritage with the 3476 Killarney Beach Rd. address visible at the bottom. The paint finish exhibits the classic, soft-edged transitions characteristic of mid-century American tackle production, with the bright yellow belly providing a sharp contrast against the orange back.
