Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 3 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #13588

A substantial 3 1/2 oz (100g) weight gives this metal spoon the density required for long-distance casting and reaching deep-water predators. Stamped clearly on the flank is the 'KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO.' mark, identifying this as an original USA-made specimen rather than a generic imitation. Measuring 4" (10cm) in length, the Nickel-plated finish provides a high-flash surface that remains effective even in stained water. The hardware on this product code 13588 includes robust, oversized split rings at both the tie-on point and the tail, securing a large, silver-finished treble hook. Because the proportions are precision-engineered from a specific alloy, the balance remains consistent during both the sink and the retrieve. This particular lure is in unused condition, earning a 5/5 rating for its clean, reflective surfaces and sharp hook points. Anglers often rely on this heavy profile for vertical jigging or working heavy currents where lighter lures might fail to hold depth.
