A bright Nickel finish distinguishes this particular 3/4oz (21g) specimen from typical brass-toned spoons. The metal body is clearly stamped with the "KASTMASTER ACME LURE CO." mark, identifying it as a genuine product of the USA. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.2cm), this lure features a robust single hook tied with a vibrant yellow bucktail tail, a configuration often favored for adding visual profile without compromising its heavy-duty utility. The Acme Kastmaster, identified by product code 13039, is crafted from a specific alloy that balances weight and volume, which is essential for long-distance casting or vertical jigging in deep water. This example shows minor signs of previous outings, maintaining a solid 4/5 condition that keeps its reflective quality sharp. Anglers typically deploy this hardware for casting into heavy wind or working through strong currents, where its streamlined shape and substantial weight-to-size ratio are most effective. The yellow hair trailer on the single hook serves as a focal point during the retrieve.
