Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Timber Doodle 0, 1/4oz black fishing spoon #19650

At 1/4 oz (8 g), the weight of this specimen provides the necessary heft for controlled casting into tight spots around structure. The Mepps Timber Doodle 0, carrying product code 19650, features a dark black finish on its spoon-shaped body, which is paired here with an amber-toned soft plastic curly tail. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) overall, this USA-made lure is constructed with an integrated weedless hook designed to keep the point shielded while navigating through submerged timber. The hardware is secured directly to the metal body, maintaining a compact profile that slides easily through aquatic vegetation. This specimen is unused and remains in excellent condition, rating a clear 5/5. Stamped markings on the face of the metal body denote the manufacturer's name and the specific model size.
