Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, this classic spoon design highlights the straightforward utility of mid-century American tackle. The 1/2oz (15g) weight provides enough mass for reaching specific depths during a retrieve. Produced by Happiness Is bait under product code 1029, this HI spoon displays a high-polish nickel finish paired with a deep blue stripe. The paint shows slight softening along the transition line, indicating its age while maintaining a 4/5 condition rating. Its construction features a teardrop-shaped metal body and a single bronze-finished treble hook attached by a split ring. The simple, drilled line-tie at the tip is typical for lures of this era made in the USA.
