Museum Archive: Vintage Len Thompson #7, 3/16oz White / Red / Brass fishing spoon #11642

Stamping the brass backside with 'LEN THOMPSON No. 7' identifies this piece as a classic Canadian-made spoon from a manufacturer that has been active since 1929. A bold red wave-style stripe slashes across the white painted face, creating a high-contrast pattern meant to catch the eye of predatory species like pike or lake trout. Measuring exactly 1 1/2 inches (3.5 cm) in length, its teardrop profile is a familiar sight in many veteran tackle boxes. With a weight of 3/16 oz (5 g), it provides a solid feel for casting or light trolling in various water conditions. The white paint displays a few minor nicks and surface scuffs from age, earning it a solid 5/5 condition rating. Known for a characteristic slow wobbling action, this No. 7 model is a reliable choice for targeting stubborn fish. The lure is rigged with a robust silver treble hook and can be tracked using product code 11642.
