Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 1/4oz Rainbow Trout fishing spoon #14416

Ten small black dots are precisely arranged across the reflective silver and blue body of this classic metal spoon, mimicking the natural aesthetic of a juvenile trout. Stamped clearly with the Acme Tackle Co. name, this specimen highlights the manufacturing heritage of a brand known for using specific alloys to achieve balance during retrieval and descent. The Rainbow Trout color scheme features a soft pink gradient along the upper edge, blending into a deep blue stripe over a polished silver base. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5cm) and weighing 1/4oz (7g), the metal body is paired with a durable treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring. This well-maintained example, identified by product code 14416, carries a 5/5 condition rating, showing clean surfaces and original luster. The solid brass construction remains a standard for anglers targeting predatory fish in strong currents or when jigging in deep water.
