A nickel-plated reverse side features a crisp 'PHOEBE' stamp, identifying this 1/8oz (4g) spoon as a classic Acme production. The front face of the 1 1/2" (4cm) metal body is finished in a Trout pattern, which utilizes a vibrant pink lateral line and fins against a light blue scale gradient punctuated by distinct black spots. Stamped into a lifelike baitfish silhouette, the design creates a distinct three-dimensional visual profile when viewed from various angles. This model, identified by product code 5101, is built with hydrodynamic properties that allow for effective use in both shallow water and deeper columns. A sharp treble hook is attached at the tail via a stainless split ring, suitable for casting or light trolling applications. The lure is preserved in 5/5 condition, showing no signs of use on its painted or plated surfaces.
