Vintage Nebco Flashbait 266, 1/3oz nickel fishing spoon #22692

Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), this metal spoon showcases the mid-century American craftsmanship typical of Nebco's Minneapolis-based production. Stamped clearly on the concave underside is the identifier "NEBCO" FLASH BAIT - 266, identifying this piece as product code 22692. The nickel finish provides a bright, reflective surface across the teardrop-shaped body, which measures exactly 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length. It features a sturdy split ring at the rear connecting a bronzed treble hook, showing some light signs of use while remaining structurally sound. A single line-tie hole is drilled at the narrow head, intended for casting or trolling where a simple, durable metal profile is required. Its overall preservation earns a 4/5 rating, showing minor surface marks that speak to its history while maintaining a clear, polished appearance.
