Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 1 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #16835

Weighing in at a substantial 1 1/2 oz (44g), this Acme Kastmaster offers the density needed for long-distance casting even in heavy winds or deep water. Measuring 3 1/4" (8.2cm) in length, specimen 16835 is crafted from a specific metal alloy intended to maintain a precise balance during vertical jigging or steady retrieves in strong currents. The nickel plating remains bright and clear, showcasing the high-quality production standards Acme has maintained at their USA facilities. Stamped directly into the metal, the "KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO." branding is sharp and legible. A robust split ring connects a sharp treble hook, prepared for heavy-duty applications against large predatory species. Rated at a 5/5 condition, the surface displays a clean, mirrored shine across its distinctive slab-cut geometry. The aerodynamic profile is engineered for stable flight and a controlled descent through the water column.
