Museum Archive: Vintage Nebco FlashBait 66, 3/4oz Copper fishing spoon #2823

Copper serves as the foundation for this classic spoon, providing a warm metallic glow that has aged gracefully. Rated 4/5, the surface remains bright with only light signs of its fishing history visible on the metal. Stamped clearly on the concave interior is the identification for the "NEBCO" FLASH-BAIT 66, marking its origins in MPLS., MINN. USA. This specimen, identified by Product Code 2823, measures 3 1/2" (9cm) and carries a weight of 3/4oz (21g). The hardware includes a sturdy treble hook attached via a metal split ring at the wide end, while a single punched hole at the narrow end provides the attachment point for a snap or leader. Its elongated teardrop profile is built for traditional casting or trolling applications in freshwater environments.
