Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 1/4oz Gold fishing spoon #17767

Tipping the scales at 1/4 oz (7 g), this Acme classic is immediately recognizable by its distinct aerodynamic wedge shape. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length, the Gold finish provides a high level of flash, while the clear stamping of "KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO." confirms its pedigree as a genuine USA-made piece. The specimen is in exceptional condition, earning a 5/5 rating with its clean, reflective surface and crisp edges. A sturdy split ring connects the body to a sharp bronze treble hook, a setup often utilized by anglers for both long-distance casting and vertical jigging in deep water. The specific balance of this lure is achieved through its precise alloy construction, which dictates its behavior during descent and retrieval. Identified by product code 17767, this particular size is a staple for those targeting trout, bass, or walleye in varying current conditions.
