Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps timber Doodle 0, 1/4oz Black fishing spoon #10524

A deep black finish defines the body of this Mepps Timber Doodle 0, providing a high-contrast silhouette when fished in stained or murky water. This specimen, identified by product code 10524, weighs in at 1/4oz (8g) and measures a compact 2" (5cm) in length. The lure is engineered for heavy cover, featuring a weedless design where the metal spoon body acts as a shield for the hook point. Included with the spoon is a translucent amber-colored curly tail trailer, which is mounted via a secure keeper to ensure it stays in place during use. In terms of condition, this piece is rated a clean 5/5, with the black coating remaining well-preserved and the manufacturer stamping clearly legible on the face. This US-manufactured hybrid spoon is a staple for anglers needing a tool that can be cast directly into lily pads or submerged timber where traditional lures might snag.
