Museum Archive: Vintage Acme K.O. Wobbler UV, 1/4oz Nickel / Green fishing spoon #5629

Nickel plating and a vibrant fluorescent green stripe define the visual profile of this American-made casting spoon. Stamped clearly into the polished metal on the reverse side is the K.O. WOBBLER name, a hallmark of Acme’s longstanding presence in the tackle industry. This specimen, identified by product code 5629, measures 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) and tips the scales at 1/4 oz (7 g). Its most technical feature is the "Sonic flipper tail," a small metal fin attached to the rear split ring alongside the treble hook. The Nickel/Green color scheme incorporates UV Glow technology, which is engineered to react in UV light for increased visibility under specific water conditions. Maintaining a 5/5 condition rating, the spoon shows no signs of wear on its reflective surfaces or its hardware. The teardrop-shaped body is paired with a vintage-style treble hook, showcasing the classic construction techniques standard in USA manufacturing.
