Museum Archive: Vintage Buck Perry Spoonplug , 1/3oz Red / White fishing spoon #2705

Dipped in a classic red and white finish, this 1/3oz (10g) metal lure represents the foundational philosophy of Buck Perry's system. The oversized black and white eyes on the red head give this 2 1/2" (6.5cm) specimen a distinct character that collectors immediately recognize. Carrying product code 2705, the lure's stamped metal body is built to track consistently at specific speeds, a core tenet of the 'Spoonplugging' method. The white underside transitions into a red tail section where the original treble hook is securely attached. This particular USA-made item remains in well-preserved 4/5 condition, displaying minimal wear on the painted surfaces. The top-mounted line tie is placed precisely to maintain the lure's depth during a retrieve or while trolling along structure. Buck Perry’s influence on modern structure fishing is encapsulated in this design, which remains a staple for those following his technical approach to the sport.
