Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Kastmaster , 3/32oz Nickel / Green fishing spoon #7712

Weighing in at a delicate 3/32 oz (2.5 g), this Acme Kastmaster exemplifies the precision engineering collectors expect from the USA-made originals. Measuring 1 1/4" (3 cm) in length, the specimen features a striking Nickel / Green color combination, with a high-polish chrome finish on one side and a vibrant green flash on the other. The "KASTMASTER" name and "ACME TACKLE CO." branding are clearly stamped into the metal face, a hallmark of its quality. Designed with a specific alloy balance, this lure is intended for versatile applications including jigging, deep-water fishing, or working through strong currents. The hardware includes a sturdy split ring at the head and a sharp treble hook attached via another split ring at the tail. Finding one in this condition, rated 5/5, is a treat for any box, as the surfaces remain bright and the green reflective tape is well-preserved. This 7712 model reflects the specialized proportions Acme used to ensure a distinct balance during descent and retrieval.
