Museum Archive: Vintage K-B Bait K-B Spoon , 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #11251

Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) and weighing a substantial 1/2oz (14g), the profile of this K-B Spoon highlights the simple yet effective design that earned it the nickname "big fish lure" among American anglers. The bright Nickel finish provides a highly reflective surface, appearing exceptionally clean with its 5/5 condition rating. On the concave side, the traditional maker's stamp clearly reads "K-B MANKATO, MINN. 2," marking its origin from the famous Minnesota-based K-B Bait company. This 11251 model is rigged with a robust treble hook attached via a split ring, paired with a matching split ring at the line tie. The metal body's curvature is designed for durability during casting or trolling, maintaining its original factory luster without visible signs of wear.
