Museum Archive: Vintage Thomas, 3/16oz Gold fishing spoon #3192

Featuring a distinct fish-shaped silhouette, this brass-bodied spoon weighs in at 3/16 oz (5.5 g). Measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm), the lure is finished in a polished gold that highlights the detailed metalwork. The upper half of the body is textured with a realistic scale pattern, while the bottom section transitions into a ribbed fin design. Near the line attachment point, a small red dot provides a subtle focal point against the gold plating. This American-made lure by Thomas, identified by product code 3192, is rigged with a bronze treble hook. The condition is a solid 5/5, with the gold finish showing excellent preservation and clarity across both the textured front and the smooth, polished back. This design is a classic example of USA-manufactured stamped metal spoons intended for precise casting in freshwater environments.
