Museum Archive: Thomas Buoyant, 1/4oz Rainbow Trout fishing spoon #0737

Tipping the scales at 1/4oz (7g), this Thomas Buoyant spoon reflects the simple yet effective design philosophy of Thomas Spinning Lures. The 1 3/4" (4.5cm) metal body is finished in a vibrant Rainbow Trout pattern, utilizing a reflective gold base decorated with precisely placed red and black spots over a fine scale texture. Identified by product code 0737, this specimen is in unused condition, preserved on its original yellow retail card that proudly displays its American heritage. The lure is rigged with a single treble hook and is intended for a variety of freshwater species including trout, salmon, and bass. The distinct gold foil "NEW" seal on the packaging remains intact, signifying its well-preserved status for any vintage tackle collection. The stamped metal construction is designed for both casting and trolling applications.
