Two vibrant red glass beads, wired securely to the spoon's head to mimic eyes, define the unique aesthetic of this tiny classic. Measuring just 0 3/4" (2 cm) and weighing a mere 1/32 oz (1.1 g), this silver-finished Hofschneider Red Eye Midge is a specialized piece for ultra-light presentations. The spoon's back carries a clear stamp of the "RED EYE MIDGE" name alongside the Hofschneider mark, identifying its origin from the USA. This specimen, identified by product code 17945, features a polished chrome-like surface that catches light effectively. It comes equipped with a small, original swivel and a sharp treble hook, suggesting it was designed for a direct tie to thin line for panfish or trout. The metal surface remains remarkably bright, earning a condition rating of 5/5.
