Museum Archive: Hellion Fish Crystal , 2/5oz Crystal fishing spoon #11605

Stamped with a detailed scale pattern across its gold-tone surface, this Hellion Fish Crystal originates from the historic Hellion Lure Products company in East Detroit, Michigan. Weighing 2/5oz (12g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, the lure features a unique fish-shaped body ending in a bifurcated tail. The Crystal finish refers to the hammered, light-reflecting texture that covers the metal exterior. This specimen remains unused, preserved in its original clear plastic packaging with the factory insert card still intact. For hook-sets, it utilizes a single rear hook equipped with a wire weed guard, attached via a heavy-duty rivet and split ring. Cataloged as product code 11605, the lure retains the sharp edges and bright finish of a mid-century tackle piece. The underside reveals the manufacturer's stamp, marking it as an authentic part of Michigan's angling heritage.
