Museum Archive: Other Megmaster Jigs, 3/16oz Nickel fishing spoon #14691

Nickel plating provides a high-visibility flash on these 1 1/4" (3 cm) spoon-style jigs, which are part of a well-preserved J.T. Handy Scotchman set. This specific package, identified by Product Code 14691 and Stock No. V-2-MM, includes two lures attached to the original card plus a third loose specimen as an added bonus. Each lure weighs 3/16 oz (5 g) and features a simple, tear-drop metal body with durable split-ring hardware. Small hooks are protected by distinctive lime-green plastic covers, ensuring the points remain sharp for the next outing. Distributed by the Jeros Tackle Co. out of Carteret, New Jersey, this set is in condition 6, meaning the lures are unused and still retain their factory luster. The vintage carding displays a list of contemporary tackle of the era, from braided dacron to sand squidding lines, situating these Megmaster Jigs within a classic East Coast fishing lineage.
