Stamped clearly on the flat surface is the "KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO" branding, identifying this 1oz (28g) specimen as a genuine original. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, its weight-to-size ratio is achieved through a specific alloy that provides the necessary balance for deep-water jigging or casting into strong currents. The high-polished gold finish reflects light, maintaining the classic look that has made the Kastmaster a staple in tackle boxes for decades. This lure, bearing Product Code 12274, shows excellent preservation with its original silver-toned treble hook and gold-tone split ring still firmly in place. The condition is rated 5/5, featuring a mirror-like surface without visible wear. Acme’s design relies on precise proportions to ensure the metal body behaves correctly during both the descent and the retrieval. A single precision-drilled hole at the top of the tapered body allows for a direct line tie or additional snap hardware.
