Gold-plated brass serves as the foundation for the detailed Red Trout finish on this 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon. Being unused in its original yellow-carded blister pack, this specimen showcases the traditional American manufacturing standards of Thomas Spinning Lures, Inc. based in Hawley, PA. The pattern consists of a deep red scale texture punctuated by black and yellow spots, intended to replicate the appearance of a small trout. Labeled under product code 10282, the packaging also references item number T102GR, denoting the gold and red color scheme. A bright silver treble hook is linked by a split ring to the tail, remaining in the same state it left the factory. Anglers have utilized Thomas Buoyant lures for decades when targeting species like salmon, walleye, and pike in various river and lake environments. Detailed instructions on the back of the card suggest casting slightly upstream or directly across-current to manage depth during the retrieve.
