Museum Archive: Vintage Atlantic Lures Northern Wobbler, 3/16oz Nickel fishing spoon #1011

Stamped directly into the nickel-plated body, the lettering clearly identifies this 3/16 oz (5 g) spoon as a Northern Wobbler. Produced by Atlantic Lures Inc. in the USA, the metal body measures 2 1/4" (6 cm) and features a classic fish-like silhouette that transitions into a flared tail section. The nickel finish remains bright and reflective, showing light signs of age consistent with a 4/5 condition rating. For hardware, it utilizes a single treble hook secured by a split ring at the tail, while the head is pre-drilled for a line tie or snap. This specific vintage specimen carries the product code 1011, making it a well-documented addition for those cataloging mid-century American metal lures. The stamping also includes the manufacturer's name, confirming its origin from the Atlantic Lures Inc. facility.
