Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 3/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #17621

Stamped clearly on the nickel-finished body is the iconic 'KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO.' branding, a mark of American-made quality. This particular specimen, product code 17621, weighs a substantial 3/4 oz (21 g) and measures 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) in length. Crafted from a specific alloy, the metal body is balanced for efficiency during both descent and retrieval. The hardware features a sharp treble hook adorned with a hand-tied white bucktail dressing, secured with a red thread wrap that provides a subtle visual accent against the polished finish. Designed to perform in heavy currents and deep water, the aerodynamic shape allows for significant casting distance. This vintage spoon remains in 5/5 condition, retaining the clean reflection of its nickel plating. Whether used for vertical jigging or standard casting, the construction reflects the durability and standards of its USA origin.
