Museum Archive: Len Thompson #2, 1oz Green / Black / Brass fishing spoon #14680

One ounce (28 g) of stamped brass forms the core of this classic Canadian casting spoon, providing the heft needed for long casts and deep presentations. Dressed in a vibrant green palette with distinctive black teardrop-shaped spots, this Len Thompson #2 specimen, identified by product code 14680, is presented in its original retail packaging and is unused. Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length, the lure is part of a legacy dating back to 1929, known among northern anglers for a characteristic slow wobbling action. The sturdy treble hook is secured with a heavy-duty split ring, ready for the strike of a stubborn pike or lake trout. The packaging features the "Lure of the North" branding and the No. 2 sizing, confirming its place as a mid-sized heavyweight in the Thompson lineup. Its brass construction offers natural corrosion resistance and a density that helps maintain depth during varied retrieval speeds.
