Museum Archive: Vintage TODDCO Main Liner, 1/2oz nickel/red fishing spoon #18382

A weight of 1/2oz (14g) provides the necessary mass for long-distance casting or trolling applications. The nickel/red color pattern on this 2 1/4" (5.5cm) lure is split longitudinally, with one side displaying a smooth metallic finish and the other a textured red foil that suggests a prismatic effect. Stamped from durable metal in the USA before 1980, the body includes a reinforced spine visible on the concave side, characteristic of the TODDCO Main Liner design. This specific unit, listed under product code 18382, carries a vintage charm typical of mid-century American tackle. The hardware remains tight, with the original treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring. The overall presentation is remarkably clear and bright, warranting a condition rating of 5/5.
