Vintage Johnson Silver Minnow, 3/4oz nickel fishing spoon #20066

A sturdy wire weed guard protects the single integrated hook on this classic spoon, making it a reliable choice for fishing through heavy vegetation. The 3/4 oz (21 g) body is crafted from a copper and zinc alloy, measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length. Stamped with "JOHNSON'S SILVER MINNOW" on the underside, this 20066 model is a vintage USA-made piece, predating the shift to overseas production. Its design allows for a 270-degree rocking motion that directs light flashes downwards and to the sides—exactly where predatory fish are most likely to strike. This nickel-colored specimen is in 4/5 condition. It remains a versatile choice for casting into weedy cover, particularly when paired with a pork rind trailer to simulate a wounded baitfish without dampening the spoon's inherent mechanical rocking.
