Museum Archive: Mepps Timber Doodle 1, 2/5oz Gold fishing spoon #8024

Gold plating covers the stamped spoon body of this specimen, which measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length. This Mepps Timber Doodle 1, identified by product code 8024, is a specialized weedless design weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g). The metallic surface is clearly stamped with the manufacturer and model names, paired with a black, glitter-infused curly tail grub trailer. Built for navigating heavy cover, the hook is cleverly integrated with the soft plastic to keep the point shielded from underwater obstructions. This specific lure is unused and retains its original luster across the metal components. The contrast between the bright metal and the dark, sparkling trailer is characteristic of this classic weedless configuration.
