Nickel plating serves as the canvas for a classic pattern of red, black, and yellow dots across the face of this 1 1/2" (4 cm) lure. Weighing in at 3/16 oz (5 g), this Thomas Buoyant (Product Code 11248) features the traditional spoon shape that has defined American trout fishing for generations. The reverse side clearly displays the manufacturer's name and 'BUOYANT' stamp, deeply pressed into the metal. A bold red accent follows the outer curve, while the face is further detailed with a stylized eye. The treble hook and attachment hardware remain bright and sharp, reflecting its 5/5 condition. This particular USA-made specimen retains its high-polish luster across the entire body, with the paint application remains crisp and vibrant.
