Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Timber Doodle 1, 2/5oz black/red fishing spoon #22584

Black spoon plating paired with a vibrant red Mister Twister Split Double Tail is a hallmark of the Mepps Timber Doodle 1, cataloged under Product Code 22584. Coming in at a weight of 2/5 oz (12 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length, this USA-made lure showcases a specialized weedless design. The hook is cleverly positioned to be weed-free by utilizing the soft plastic body, intended for fishing in timber and thick vegetation. Its black-finished spoon body provides a dark silhouette against the translucent red of the ribbed trailer. This particular specimen is in very clean shape, graded at a 4/5 condition, with the soft plastic remaining flexible and the metal hardware showing only light surface character from storage. The spoon is stamped clearly, and the rigging is original to the classic Mepps configuration.
