Museum Archive: Thomas Buoyant, 1/4oz Fire Tiger fishing spoon #11349

Dressed in the recognizable Fire Tiger pattern, this 1/4 oz (7 g) spoon showcases the classic minnow profile that has defined Thomas Spinning Lures for decades. This specific 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) specimen, identified by product code 11349, features a high-contrast finish moving from a bright lime green back to a yellow midsection and an orange belly, all tied together with bold black stripes. The "Made in U.S.A." stamp on the yellow card back highlights its origin from Hawley, Pennsylvania. As an unused item still in its original retail packaging, the lure remains in pristine condition, preserved exactly as it left the factory. The packaging notes its suitability for trout, salmon, and walleye, reflecting the long history of this American-made hardware. The lure is equipped with a silver-tone treble hook and split ring, intended for casting or trolling in various river and lake environments.
