Seneca Little Cleo, 3/16oz nickel/blue fishing spoon #23663

Stamped with the distinctive "LITTLE CLEO" block lettering, this vintage spoon remains in unused condition as a prime example of Seneca Lure Company’s original craftsmanship before their acquisition by Acme in the early 1980s. The 1 1/4" (3cm) body features a high-luster nickel/blue finish that caught the eye of trout and panfish anglers across the USA. Weighing in at 3/16oz (5g), the lure’s specific metal thickness and rear-heavy taper were foundational to the Seneca design philosophy. This specimen, assigned product code 23663, retains its original hardware including a sturdy split ring and a sharp treble hook. The crispness of the stamping and the clean state of the plating reflect the manufacturing quality of this early production era.
