Museum Archive: Prescott Spinner Little Doctor 255, 1/4oz gold fishing spoon #20687

Stamped with the "SPIN DOCTOR 255" name directly into the metal, this 1/4oz (7g) brass spoon serves as a versatile tool for Northern Pike and Walleye. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5cm) in length, the lure features a willow leaf geometry designed by Prescott Spinner Co. to maintain a stable presentation. The "2 in 1" design on the blue card packaging indicates technical versatility; attaching the line to the large end creates a wide sweeping wobble, while the narrow end is intended for deep trolling. This specific specimen, identified by product code 20687 (catalog number P255-108), remains in its original packaging and is unused. Its solid brass construction provides consistent weight distribution for reaching depths during heavy casting sessions. On the reverse of the card, the legacy of the Prescott Spinner Co. as a division of Yellow Bird Products is detailed, anchoring this gold-colored lure in its Illinois manufacturing history. The factory hardware consists of a silver-tone split ring paired with a sharp treble hook.
