Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (3.5cm) in length, this Acme Kastmaster displays a striking dual-tone aesthetic common among classic metal spoons. The lure features a vibrant red painted finish on one face, which shows some light signs of use, while the opposing side retains its high-polish nickel luster. Deeply stamped into the red surface is the KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO branding, a hallmark of its American manufacturing heritage. With a weight of 1/8oz (3.5g), this specimen is built from a specialized alloy designed to maintain a specific balance during both the retrieve and the drop. A silver split ring secures a sharp treble hook to the tail, making it a reliable choice for jigging or casting in various water depths. Evaluating the physical state, this lure earns a 4/5 rating, showing minimal surface marks that reflect its history without compromising its utility. Identified by product code 19785, this particular size is highly regarded for its versatility across different predatory species.
