Museum Archive: Vintage Jake's Lures Lil Jake, 1/3oz Nickel/Red fishing spoon #17933

At a compact 1/3 oz (9 g), the nickel-plated surface of the Jake's Lures Lil Jake displays vibrant red dots that have stayed sharp over the years. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5 cm), this American-made piece utilizes a distinct folded metal body that offers a different profile than your standard spoon or spinner. The specimen carries product code 17933 and remains in a very clean 5/5 condition, with the original hardware and treble hook looking well-preserved. Its rectangular silhouette and hollow center channel are hallmarks of the Jake's design, engineered to provide a specific presence in the water. The contrast between the bright nickel finish and the red dots creates a classic color scheme often favored for trout and multi-species angling. Every corner of the metalwork is smooth, showing the quality of USA manufacturing from that era.
