Museum Archive: Vintage Other Sur-katch Golden Wobbler, 1oz fishing spoon #19772

Stamped with its origin in Rochester, NY, the inner curve of this brass spoon carries the classic Golden Wobbler identity. Weighing in at 1 oz (28 g) with a total length of 3 1/4" (8.5 cm), this heavy-duty spoon by Sur-Katch was designed for deep-water casting or trolling. A large, bronzed treble hook is secured to the tail by a heavy-duty split ring, a testament to its American-made durability. The gold finish on the convex side shows light surface marks from storage, while the concave side reveals a distinctive silver-plated stripe that has partially thinned over time to show the brass foundation underneath. Identified as Product Code 19772, this specimen is rated 4/5, retaining a solid structure and clear markings that represent a bygone era of New York tackle manufacturing.
