Museum Archive: Vintage Ideal Products Mr Fish, 3/16oz gold fishing spoon #19343

Polished gold surfaces characterize the body of this metal spoon, highlighting the intricate scale stamping and stylized "eye" detail near the line tie. Manufactured in the USA by Ideal Products, the Mr Fish model features a distinct fish-shaped profile with a flared tail section. Measuring 1 1/2" (4cm) and weighing 3/16oz (6g), the lure is well-suited for light-tackle casting. This specimen, carrying product code 19343, is in excellent form with a 5/5 rating, retaining a bright finish across its stamped features. The gold-finished treble hook is attached via a sturdy split ring at the rear, while the nose is fitted with a dark-toned split ring for line attachment.
