Vintage Len Thompson #2, 1oz Red / Black / Gold fishing spoon #5406

Stamped clearly on the brass-toned reverse, the 'LEN THOMPSON NO. 2' mark identifies this Canadian classic, a staple in tackle boxes since 1929. The vibrant red front face features a pattern of eight black dots, a signature look designed to mimic baitfish while maintaining visibility in various water conditions. Weighing in at 1 oz (28 g) and measuring 3 1/4" (8.3 cm), the solid construction of this spoon is intended for versatile use, whether casting or trolling for pike and lake trout. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 5406, shows light character from previous outings but remains in 4/5 condition, with the original treble hook still sharp and securely attached via a sturdy split ring. The balance of the metal body is a hallmark of the brand, facilitating a slow wobbling motion. Every component, from the brass base to the painted finish, reflects the quality expected from a manufacturer with nearly a century of heritage in Alberta.
