Vintage Thomas Buoyant, 3/16oz copper fishing spoon #22219

Weighing 3/16oz (5g), the copper surface of this vintage spoon showcases the classic stamped design that has defined the Thomas Buoyant since its US patent in 1946. Measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length, the body features distinct side notches and an engraved "Thomas Co." logo accompanied by a pair of stylized fish on the concave side. This specific specimen remains in excellent shape, earning a 5/5 rating for its clean, reflective metal and well-preserved hardware. The lure is rigged with a robust gold-tone treble hook secured by a circular split ring, ready for casting or trolling applications. Designed in the USA to mimic a frantic baitfish, its jewelry-quality finish is specifically tailored for targeting trout, salmon, and pike. The simple through-hole at the front allows for direct line attachment or the addition of a snap, maintaining the lure’s intended balance during a slow retrieval.
