Stamped clearly on the reverse side with the Horrocks-Ibbotson Utica, N.Y. hallmark, this 3/4oz (23g) spoon is a remarkable example of classic American manufacturing. Measuring 3" (7.5cm) in length, the nickel-finished body serves as a high-contrast backdrop for two faceted blue beads securely wired through the metal. These blue accents provide a unique visual profile that distinguishes the Horrocks-Ibbotson Wobbler from more common hardware. The hardware on product code 8273 is well-preserved, featuring a sturdy treble hook attached via a reliable split ring. Every detail, from the crispness of the stamped lettering to the polish of the nickel, reflects a lure in 5/5 condition. For an enthusiast of New York-made tackle, the "No. 3 Acting Spoon" designation on the back plate offers a direct connection to the brand's historical catalog.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
