Museum Archive: Vintage One Eye Wiggler Lucky Strike, 1/2oz Nickel / Red Eye fishing spoon #2761

Stamped clearly on the concave side with "LUCKY STRIKE CANADA," this spoon carries the distinct identity of northern tackle craftsmanship. Measuring 3" (7.5 cm) in length, the One Eye Wiggler Lucky Strike features a polished nickel body that remains bright. A singular translucent red bead is threaded through the upper portion of the blade, providing the "one eye" visual that defines this model's appearance. Identified by product code 2761, this specimen weighs 1/2 oz (14 g) and is built with a heavy-gauge metal suited for reaching depth. The hardware setup includes a barrel swivel at the line tie and a sharp treble hook attached via a robust split ring at the tail. Showing signs of light handling that place it in a 4/5 condition, the nickel finish retains its luster against the contrasting red focal point. This specific construction reflects the utilitarian design ethos common in mid-century Canadian spoon lures intended for casting and trolling.
