Tipping the scales at 3/4 oz (21 g), this vintage metal spoon showcases a striking split-finish design that was a hallmark of the TODDCO company before production ceased in 1980. One side of this 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) Main liner features a vibrant, textured red scale pattern, while the reverse is a clean, polished nickel. Identified by product code 8581, the lure represents a classic piece of American tackle history manufactured in the USA. The hardware consists of a sturdy treble hook attached via a robust split ring at the tail, with a single line-tie hole at the nose. In a condition rated 5/5, the reflective surfaces and finish remain exceptionally preserved, highlighting the quality of the vintage plating and original craftsmanship. This specific specimen serves as a prime example of the heavy-gauge casting spoons designed for reaching deeper water or maintaining distance when casting into the wind.
