Museum Archive: Vintage Seneca Little Cleo (Hula Girl) trolling spoon Glow , 3/16oz White / Green / Nickel fishing spoon #7785

Weighing in at 3/16oz (5g), this Seneca-made Little Cleo carries a piece of angling history on its reverse side. The "Hula Girl" dancer engraving on the nickel back is the hallmark of the original Seneca Lure company production before the 1980s Acme acquisition, a detail many seasoned collectors believe was the secret to its legendary success. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm) in length, the front face features a split green and white finish designed for trolling applications. This specific model, identified by product code 7785, reveals a vibrant luminous glow when used in dark conditions or at depth. The specimen is rated at 5/5, showing exceptionally well-preserved paint and a clean nickel-finished treble hook. Every stamping of the iconic dancer remains sharp and distinct on the spoon's underside.
