Museum Archive: Pro King, 2/5oz Fire Tiger fishing spoon #2104

Featuring a vibrant "Fire Tiger" pattern with salmon-pink accents and bold black wavy stripes, this trolling spoon remains in its original vintage packaging. This 2/5 oz (12.5 g) specimen measures 3 3/4" (9.5 cm) and represents a classic era of Great Lakes fishing. The item is unused, maintaining its factory finish and sharp treble hook. Manufactured in the USA, Pro King lures gained fame as tournament winners, specifically noted on the card as a "$10,000 Winner" in the Waukegan Salmon Classic. The lure features reflective tape, a common sight on gear intended for deep-water trolling to maximize light reflection. Identified by the product code 2104, it includes specific instructions on the reverse for optimal trolling speeds ranging from 1.1 to 5 mph. The back of the card suggests rigging with downriggers, sliders, or behind dodgers for target species like Coho, Steelhead, and Chinook salmon.
