Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster, 1/8oz gold fishing spoon #22849

Shiny gold plating catches the light across the sleek, aerodynamic profile of this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) casting spoon. Stamped clearly with the "KASTMASTER ACME TACKLE CO." mark, this specimen carries the product code 22849. Weighing 1/8 oz (3.5 g), the lure's heavy-set wedge design is engineered for distance casting and effective use in strong currents or deeper water. The hardware remains in top form, featuring a robust treble hook secured by a solid split ring at the rear. Manufactured in the USA, the specific alloy used in its construction ensures the precise balance for which the Acme brand is renowned among enthusiasts. This particular lure earns a condition rating of 5/5, exhibiting a brilliant, well-preserved metallic surface and clean edges.
