Stamping on the gold-finished teardrop blade clearly identifies this Joe's Flies specimen with a "3.5" mark, indicating its size within the brand's classic lineup. Crafted in the USA, the 1546 product code refers to a design that combines a sleek torpedo-style weight with a feathered trailer. Measuring 3 1/4" (8cm) in total length, the lure utilizes a rich combination of black and deep burgundy feathers to create its profile. The gold plating across the blade and body remains bright, showing minor signs of use that place it at a 4/5 condition rating. Anglers often look for these specific feathered spinners for casting in various freshwater environments where a 3/16oz (6g) profile is needed. The hardware includes a trailing hook tied into the feathers alongside a fixed main hook, a signature configuration for this manufacturer. The wire loop at the head is intact, ready for attachment to a snap or leader.
