Vintage Strike King Charles Spence Balsa King, 1/3oz fishing lure #19087

Brown and orange hues are layered under a heavy dusting of white glitter on this 1/3 oz (10 g) vintage crankbait. This Strike King Charles Spence Balsa King, identified by product code 19087, represents a fine piece of 1970s American lure history. Hand-carved from balsa wood, the body provides the high buoyancy characteristic of premium floating plugs from that era. It features an amber-tinted plastic diving lip that is securely pinned, designed to reach shallow to mid-range depths. The hardware includes traditional treble hooks attached via sturdy hangers at the belly and tail, both showing very little signs of use. Measuring roughly 2.5 inches (6.5 cm), the lure’s painted eye remains clear and well-defined against the glittery finish. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a remarkably clean surface without significant hook drag or age-related wear to the wood body.
