Stamped clearly into the nickel-finished blade, the vintage Heddon logo and the "HEP" name mark this as a genuine piece of American fishing history. Weighing in at a delicate 1/8 oz (3.6 g) and measuring 2" (5.1 cm) in total length, this inline spinner serves as a classic finesse tool. The construction features a ribbed, cylindrical metal weight that provides the necessary ballast, leading down to a treble hook encased in a distinctive red sleeve. At the top of the wire assembly, a fluorescent pink bead provides a pop of color against the polished metal components. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 22906, is maintained in 5/5 condition, exhibiting the clean surfaces and sharp lines sought after by collectors. Heddon’s attention to detail is visible in the smooth rotation of the clevis and the precision of the USA-made hardware.
