Museum Archive: Vintage Johnson Sprite, 3/16oz fishing spoon #22334

Red and white wavy stripes define the vibrant painted face of this 3/16 oz (4.5 g) spoon. Turning the lure over reveals a polished silver back deeply embossed with the "JOHNSON'S SPRITE" name, a signature element that reflects the Johnson brand's history of manufacturing durable metal lures. This specific model, identified by product code 22334, is preserved in 4/5 condition, exhibiting a clean finish and original hardware. The spoon features a single line-tie hole at the tapered nose and a robust split ring connecting a dark-finished treble hook at the trailing end. Its weighted teardrop profile and solid metal construction were specifically designed for casting and trolling techniques.
