Museum Archive: Vintage Pflueger CHUM , 1/2oz Nickel fishing spoon #13321

Nickel plating shines brightly across this 1/2oz (14g) specimen, which bears the distinctive "PFLUEGER CHUM" and "MADE IN U.S.A." stamps on its convex side. Identified by product code 13321, this 2 1/4" (5.5cm) lure represents a classic weedless spoon design produced by Pflueger through the mid-20th century. The integrated single hook and wire guard assembly are characteristic of its weedless function, specifically engineered for casting into thick vegetation. Screws and mechanical fasteners on the body are exceptionally well-preserved, earning this piece a 5/5 condition rating. The polished nickel surface is clean and reflective, maintaining the original luster found on well-kept tackle from the 1950s era.
