Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 1/8oz Nickel / Trout fishing spoon #13164

Stamped with five bold black dots against a reflective Nickel / Trout finish, this specimen exemplifies the classic craftsmanship of the USA-made Acme lineup. Carrying the product code 13164, this Kastmaster measures 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) and weighs a nimble 1/8 oz (3.5 g). The metal body is crisply embossed with "KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO.", a mark of authenticity that seasoned collectors always look for. With a condition rating of 5/5, the metal surface is well-preserved, and the original treble hook remains sharp and securely attached. Its aerodynamic, slab-sided design is engineered from a specific alloy to maintain balance while casting or being used as a jig in deep water or strong currents. This particular trout-patterned variant is a staple for those targeting predatory fish in varied environments. The hardware consists of sturdy split rings at both the head and tail to ensure reliable connections during retrieval.
