Museum Archive: Acme Kastmaster , 3/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #2843

A solid 3/4 oz (21g) of nickel-plated metal gives this specific Acme Kastmaster the heft needed for long-distance casting or reaching deep structures. Labeled with product code 2843 on the vintage retail sticker, this 2 1/2" (6.2cm) specimen is an authentic piece of American tackle history produced by the Acme Tackle Company out of Providence, Rhode Island. The bright nickel finish remains highly reflective, paired with a white feathered treble hook that provides a distinct visual profile during retrieval. This lure is unused and remains in its original blister packaging, which highlights Acme’s reputation for creating "the world's most active metal lure." The back of the card details its siblings in the Acme lineup, including the Fiord and Kamlooper spoons. Designed for versatility, the balanced metal body is suitable for vertical jigging, casting into heavy winds, or working through fast-moving currents where a stable, heavy lure is required. This feathered version provides a softer trailing edge than the standard metal-only models.
