Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl), 1/2oz nickelred fishing spoon #24403

Nickel and red scale textures split the face of this 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon, representing a classic aesthetic for fans of the original Hula Girl series. Designated with product code 24403, this Little Cleo specimen originates from the Seneca Lure company era, predating the Acme acquisition in the early 1980s. A hallmark of these early models is the iconic dancer stamped onto the back of the spoon, a feature that collectors often feel is missing from modern mass-produced versions. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the metal body is paired with a single hook dressed in white feathers and wrapped in black thread. The condition is exceptional, sitting at a 5/5 with a bright, crisp finish on both the smooth nickel and textured red surfaces. While modern spoons often simplify the design, the original Seneca construction remains prized among anglers who swear by the specific weight distribution and hardware setup of these vintage pieces. The attachment point features a clean split ring, ready for casting or trolling.
